“When speaking of a culture, ethnicity or group of people, the name should be capitalized. 'Black' with a capital 'B' refers to people of the African diaspora. Lowercase 'black' is simply a color.” For her, capitalizing the letter is about recognition for the Black community and empowerment in her own identity.Jun 28, 2022
