Founded in 2015, Black Girls Create is a unique intersectional hub for Black creators and critical fandom. Through substantive but easily accessible content, we encourage fans to celebrate and critique pop culture while also advocating for and contributing to the increased media representation of Black women specifically, and people of color in general.

Connect
We believe in building community. We strive to facilitate safe spaces for Black women specifically and people of color in general to nerd out about the things that interest them, critique the things they love, and create their own transformative and original works.
Cultivate
We believe in gassing people up. Through discussions of pop culture and fandom, we encourage people to find the holes in media that they would like to fill. We edit and provide spaces for Black people to publish their work online, be they essays, critiques and reviews, or fan fiction.
Build
We believe in doing The Most™. We not only encourage others, but personally and professionally strive to always grow and expand not only our worldviews but our artistic purpose.

Deborah Winfield, Newsletter Curator

Deborah is a ghost. A spectre. A figment of your imagination. She cannot be contained by the boundaries of the 26 shapes formed to make what you would call words. Trying to capture her essence in one paragraph is like trying to catch smoke. Trying to catch smoke with your bare hands.
