Short # 20 - Influencers

from Mismatched Texts Hosted by Hagan & Hoffmann

Topics include the uneven racial dynamics of the algorithm that governs these platforms and the compromised work of artists for financial gain. Admitting our own lack of influence, we try to understand the desire and passion and ultimately the capitalist impulse to be followed by millions. Apparently we're pretty far behind.
