Technology has lowered the barrier to entry in a number of areas. Journalism is one such area. Even with an abundance of disposable content, there's still outlets for good Black journalism. Nowadays, good Black journalism can be found in local publications & podcasts. Really depends on what the reader wants to know.😎

Definitely going to college. Before that I thought all Black people were poor. I'd never met (or got to know) any upper middle class Black people prior to that. I was exposed to a wide range of music including Jazz. I even developed an affinity for rock music groups like Led Zeppelin are one of my favs until this day. Prior to that I rejected anything other than Soul, R&B, Rap, and Funk. Traveling, reading, and working in corporate America has also changed my world view significantly, but none of these as much as getting out the PJs and going to college.
