Diaspora Truth - Monique Needham and Reenie Chimangah

What do you do when you have a  passion for film and storytelling but there is a lack of relatable stories and an inaccurate representation of black people in the industry?

You tell your own stories! 

GetNeeks is a new media entertainment network all about telling stories simple or complex. Stories that are a true reflection of of the lives of people of colour. 

On this episode of Diaspora Truth, host Twaambo Kapilikisha speaks to  Monique Needham ( founder ) and Reenie Chimangah ( Content creator / publicist for GetNeeks and also Editor in Chief for Chaud Magazine ) about GetNeeks, how they are telling stories our way, why collaboration with creatives is important and what exciting projects they are working on!

What is the creative process of web series?  Why are they important? How are webisodes a creative medium for black men and women to share their stories and creativity?
