In this episode of the Black-Liberation.Tech Podcast, Dr. Renee Jordan continues our journey through Lesson D2.1: Embracing Digital Literacies. This week, we explore two essential skills for thriving in today’s digital world—promotion and publicizing—and what they look like through a liberation-centered lens.
Together, we examine reflection prompts designed to help learners and their mothers/guardians think deeply about how they show up online:
How do you promote yourself, your work, or your vision?
How do you amplify causes, events, and community initiatives?
What are the opportunities—and what are the risks?
Dr. Jordan also shares a guided online search featuring powerful examples of Latinas, Afro-Latinas, and Black women who are reshaping business, marketing, PR, and digital communication. Listeners will learn how women such as Mabel & Shaira Frias (Luna Magic), Lala Inuti Ahari, LaToya Shambo (Black Girl Digital), Brittany Chavez (Shop Latinx), Janel Martinez (Ain’t I Latina?), Zakiya Larry, and others use authentic storytelling, community building, culturally centered strategies, and cross-platform amplification to promote and publicize with impact.
This episode invites listeners to reflect, write, and reimagine how they can use digital tools ethically—and powerfully—to share their gifts, strengthen their voice, and build opportunities rooted in purpose and cultural pride.
