But I also love now that I have this great platform where I can highlight people. No, I'm not in love with fashion anymore, but I love fashion. I know we touched upon the publishing landscape, but how invested are you in the fashion industry? Are you still in love with fashion or is it bittersweet? But I'm glad to see that people of color, specifically Black and brown people are getting these opportunities.īack to fashion. So, I don't like the extra added job that has been put on you guys. Once upon a time, you wrote an article and that's what you did. You have to make sure that whatever it is that you're writing is getting enough clicks. Now you guys are forced to be not only writers and editors but also internet personalities, social media influencers on behalf of the magazine that you're working with.

I wish that you guys had the opportunity to become an editor-in-chief of a magazine and have a car and driver at your disposal, and fly first class, and have a clothing allowance, and all those things that used to happen in my era. My only issue is that I wish there was still the money connected to it the way it was when it was an all-white industry. I'm so happy to see the gates opening up for Black and brown people finally in publishing in these traditionally white spaces. What are your thoughts on the industry now? Being that it's so different, do you have any thoughts one way or another, good or bad, about the state of the media today? It was interesting to see you write about what the publishing landscape was like back in those days.
