Black History Month: Written By
Award: Graphite Pencil
Graphite Pencil / Writing for Advertising / Film / 2022
Black History is not one month. It's being written as we speak. Every photo, protest, poem and post shared have spurred the movements that define Black History today. The campaign Written By was created to honour and celebrate the multiplicity of the Black community as they use Meta's apps to write history every day, from WhatsApp messages to Instagram captions. An Academy Award-winning cinematographer and director helped to tell this story and show that Black History is being written every day.
