This Artist (@sparklyfawn) Started An Important Hashtag So Black Artists Can Get The Recognition They Deserve
“I just want the black artist[s] to know that they are just as worthy. Black artist[s] have to work twice as hard as their white peers just to be seen,” Hayford said.
Hayford said they are so grateful for everyone who participated in the hashtag: “I feel warm inside. People were sharing their experiences under the hashtag. It’s nice to know that I am not alone, and I love the sense of togetherness that the hashtag has created.”
