Is Instagram An Actual Tool For Change?
The Black Lives Matter protests are still going in the US, prompting marches and tributes everywhere from NZ to London. In such a pivotal time for the movement we discuss whether posting on Instagram is helpful, why we shouldn’t be focusing all our energy on looting, how to actively engage in anti-racism and why it’s so important that we don’t think of this as just an American issue. Then, we move onto the ‘cancellation’ of fashion brand Sporty & Rich - the tides turned as fast as founder Emily Oberg’s ‘Health = Wealth’ T-shirts flew off the shelves during a global pandemic. Is the backlash over Oberg’s comments about wealth really the problem? What part do we have to play in the promotion and success of brands? And why do we keep putting young, untrained women on a pedestal - then knock them off when they inevitably fail? And, let’s be honest, wasn’t it ALWAYS tone deaf to wear ‘Sporty & Rich’ shirts in a global pandemic?
