we'll discuss the trial of coming to goth age with your personal fashion, in a subculture and community that purposefully erases you.

and how hard it is to find yourself when there is low visbility and in the past almost no visbility of black and brown physical traits. be it natural/kinky/coily hair, brown and black makeup undertones and foundations and shades, or plus size or broad shoulder or tall goth models for clothing.

thank you to the person who donated towards my 2022-2023 canva annual membership. i'm $180 away from being able to afford the membership. each donation helps even one dollar. if a dollar is too much each reaction, like, comment, and share helps out and those are all free ways to support me. i appreciate your understanding of lower quality content inbetween waiting for the donations to come in for this product.

you asked, and i.....TRY...to answer. black isn't a monolith, i'm just one person who is black answering this......there can be many different versions. what is it like being black and goth?

sadly the first experience is often having to prove your gothiness BECAUSE your skin is shades of brown and black. and being dismissed SIMPLY because of the color of your skin.

let's talk about it!

hey guys! my canva annual membership you so graciously fundraised for me last year is now at it's end. i am needing another $120 to continue giving you the quality of content you are used to. until that is raised my quality will be scalling back a little. there are multiple ways to donate to the cause:

thank you all for subscribing to my channel!! i made it to 1k subscribers and one more step towards becoming eligible to make money on youtube. the last step i need is more watchtime. i'm pretty low on watchtime so while i'd love if you guys would just run some of my playlists muted in the background to get more time watched i don't expect it.

there's my update and once again thank you for your support!!

a fellow black goth content creator was kind enough to shout me out on a list of lesser known goth channels on youtube that they created! i mention the other very esteemed people i was fortunate enough to be listed in cahoots with. i also mention the content creator, aji lastrange, and her various platforms she writes on. the goth life includes networking with each other.

i go over an article written by Dejanae Jackson who gives her personal anecdotes of being a black goth and what it means to her, shares her experience growing up as a baby bat pre internet days, and her struggle with reconciling it with our general black culture and how she came out on the other end of it. the goth life includes highlighting people's voices in the subculture and community that get often overlooked and undervalued.

i review an article written by a south asian goth and talking about their experiences of being in goth over the pond. while this isn't a black perspective, i had seen this article being shared over and over and it being a hot topic. so i wanted to read it and discuss it with ya'll and how i as a black native person can connect to her experiences as well. the goth life includes brown and black people always.

i'm showcasing an upcoming film by fellow youtuber audre revenge. it is a vampire flick that includes qtibpoc and black and brown goths called bitten, a tragedy. it will also go into depths of how the black experience of being goth can be fueled and includes the darkness that is racism and life threatening history of racism for black people as i have discussed in previous videos!

warning part of the video has bright strobing lights starting at 10:07.

bobby brown and the gothic romance novel? yes they can go hand in hand. check out my you choose, i react series episode where i dive deep into an old bobby brown song called feelin' inside. since this was also made in the 90s i count this apart of my 90s black babybat segway to goth series as well. the goth life includes exploring other dark themed songs.
