A lot of us college girls look to “the greats” on social media for tips, lifestyle advice, and fashion or beauty inspiration. That’s why today I’m sharing my favorite Black influencers to #diversifyyourfeed.

Oftentimes our social media feeds can be whitewashed and filled with the same old creators that everyone else is following (and then Instagram will start recommending us more creators that fit this bill) — and as a result, we miss out on amazing Black creators and influencers. And this is a huge shame, because the people we see on our feeds can greatly shape our opinions and outlooks on the world.

I love watching college YouTubers talk about their experiences with college admissions and their lives in college – it’s my guilty pleasure! So naturally, I love Domonique’s videos where she interviews fellow college students on what their experiences have been like.

She often interviews POC students on their experiences in high education institutions and how their racial identity affects their experiences.
