Even on Nov. 17, when the farewell tweets were flying and users feared the site would implode, Black Twitter was still Black Twittering. BlackVoicesWTTW
“I have looked at Twitter for collective mourning, where we have had to watch our brothers and sisters gunned down in the middle of the street,” Cochran said. “I have also watched Twitter, especially Black Twitter, take something like World War III, the potential of nuclear war, and make hilarious jokes using SpongeBob memes and so, it’s the range for me.”
And that’s why for him, one of the most memorable Black Twitter experiences he has had was on Jan. 6, 2021. “While so many people I think was wringing their hands and like, ‘our country is not like this, this is not us, who are we?’ I felt like I was collectively standing on my porch with a bunch of my friends, my family members, my cousins, just pointing across the street like, ‘oh my God, you see these people?’” Cochran said. “It was this moment where it was like, look how much time you’ve invested into denigrating, oppressing us and look at this force that you've created underneath all of that.
Pope streams his show “SuitUP” on Twitter, a place he says helped him launch his content and has worked well for him since. “It’s a place that I’ve been able to say things and that go viral pretty frequently, and [have] articles written about things I’ve tweeted about and so I worked turning that into SuitUP News,” Pope said. “And so that’s the way that I’ve used this platform and be able to touch, and inform, and inspire and also entertain people as well, especially talking about carrot cake. It’s become a thing for the last two and a half years. I hate it. It’s disgusting.
