Amara Cofer | Black Girl Gone Podcast

New Series: MISSING, MURDERED + THE MEDIA.<br /><br />Kicking it off with my first guest, Amara Cofer — host of the podcast, Black Girl Gone. Amara brings a whole new perspective to the conversation, one that actually inspired me to change the title of the series. She speaks a lot about the importance of social media as a tactic in helping to raise awareness for cases that are historically left out of the mainstream media's coverage. <br /><br />With 95k TikTok followers, Amara knows a thing or two about leveraging the power of social media to help a case. She does it all the time on her podcast and TikTok channel.<br /><br />Amara set this series up perfectly and I will be exploring more facets of this complicated subject over the next few weeks.<br /><br />Below is a link to the TikTok played in today's episode.
