Collections of studios owned and run by Black People. I'm sure there are some I missed, so please let me know (please double-check that they are owned by black people), and I will add them. Don't just follow them; check out their games. This list is about equity and ownership. go.bsky.app/4wfgP11

It is my humble duty to explain: The parts of marketing that are super visible, like ARGs, flashy stands at Gamescom, or deluxe boxes of merch sent to creators are lovely. but they're the tip of the iceberg of what marketing work is, and they don't do anything without the foundations:
