What I will state for the record is that once again, everything happens for a reason, and when it comes to the validity and relevance of people of color in the realm of Social Media, it falls on my shoulders to state for the record that the current social networking standard platform actually began back in the beginning of the new millennium with a website that is still live on the web.
