Hi guys I’m new here!
Good morning cousins,
Although I haven’t been blurting much, I’m still here…lurking like some of y’all do..lol
@VadaBee had brought up some good points regarding engagement and interactions on the timeline. We all know that there’s a lack of it even though we have a lot of cousins that’s signed up.
Some cousins had given a few solutions and those were taken into consideration. We have tried different ways to increase engagement but as you see, many don’t care for it. Three years later and it’s the same thing…folks get excited for a hot second, then leave, then forget. Since there’s hardly any drama on here, folks don’t want any part of it.
It’s the same issue that other Black owned networks exclusive to us, experience..even before we launched Blkem. And it’s the issue that many continue to see.
Sooo…we’re going back to the drawing board and revisit some of the points made by some of you. We’re also going to look at alternatives.
Exclusivity should increase interactions but when you have many that don’t care for it or they would be involved, then we have to figure out if we’ll be able to continue this trend for another 3 years.
Compromising is not the goal so if anyone have some unorthodox solutions, send me a DM.

Good morning cousins,
We have not added the ability to share Block on timeline.
***In the meantime, before you start a Block, create a blurt (post) and let others know you’re about to start a Block.
When you start a Block, there’s no indication that would alert users that you have started one. Also, if you are in a Block, there’s no audible alert that notifies you when someone pulled up.
Lastly, when you’re finish with a Block, please click the Block menu and close it, so it’s not lingering in the list.
Thank you
#blkem #blkemblocks
Cousins,
Please continue to spread the word so that people are aware, especially new users.
1. If you're using the website, you can see everyone's blurts (posts) on the website by opening or going to the side menu, and clicking on "Explore".
2. If you're using the iOS or Android mobile apps, you can see everyone's blurts by going to the top of the home screen and clicking on "The Hall" tab.
3. If you want to start a Block (audio chat), it can only be done on the mobile app. At the bottom of the app screen, click the middle icon that looks like four squares.
4. If you want to utilize the premium services, you have to subscribe via the mobile app. Once you do, you can utilize those services on the website.
5. If you are in the Detroit, MI area, we launched Safezone Mobile [SZM] Pilot program in collaboration with New Era Detroit. It's a Safety and Security Initiative to help curb crime in a section of Detroit. This program will run for approximately 1 or 2 years. Please reach out to us if you have any additional questions.

Welcome back...there are accounts that haven't been active since 2020 and are taking up too much space on the server. We have sent out numerous amounts of notifications regarding inactive accounts months ago with little to no response and we still haven't removed any accounts until today..when about 300 accounts returned with error messages.
If we're struggling to do our part in positive progression for the Black community, then we're just going to have to find other ways to get out the struggle.
Blkem has taken on an identify of its own and is no way a Black Twitter copycat.
What is your solution to bringing people back on the platform, who have been away for over 3 years?
Only followers of this user (theglamorousacademic) can see their posts
Yup…it was that time!
Greetings cousins,
After months of deliberation, we have FINALLY deleted our Twitter account. This was the ultimate goal when we launched Blkem..to make a progressive space for the community, and remove any connections to negative influence and the absence of community building from these other platforms. This would have been the same for Instagram, but they prematurely, removed our account over 1 year ago, for no apparent reason.
We started this process by removing any OTP login/sign up with FB, Google, and Twitter. So cousins can no longer use these accounts to log into Blkem. Now, we are removing our existence from their platforms.
For 3 years we tried utilizing our accounts on those platforms to spread the word about Blkem and for 3 years, we have encountered many push backs from people in our community...."So why are you here using Twitter", "I'd rather stay using Twitter and Instagram", "We can always find a loop hole to their shadow banning", "I'll just report these racists", etc etc etc....People that would rather endure the negative energy towards us on platforms that do not care about us. Platforms that do no penalize racist accounts. Platforms that limit Black content so other content can thrive.
We had many people join Blkem in those 3 years but we also had many that went back to business as usual. The same thing we see in society today. Many are so unserious about actual community change.
Even though we deleted our account, it's not a failure on our side but it's a way to show you all that we are true and transparent to our word and essential Black Owned entities is where we need to be to remove the dependency.
For those who still utilize these platforms, continue to spread the word about Blkem and we will be doing the same through other means.

I gotta start getting back on here again. IG took my music account so that sucks. Anyone in NC looking to connect with a creative? I've got a record label, online magazine, about to start a clothing company and I've got connections with other directors, producers, editors, writers, etc. Anyone in Jersey? I've got a guy out there who does photography and shoots music videos. I'm a whole package, man! Lmao seriously, let's get to work, let's build something.
