About this episode
A growing tension between TikTok and Black creators has come to a head in recent weeks with some creators making a stand. Last month, TikTok creator Erick Louis posted a dance video that sparked the beginning of the “#BlackTikTokStrike.” Creator Erick Louis sat down with VICE News Reports producer Janice Llamoca to break down the events that inspired the strike and how he sees this as a labor movement.
This episode was reported and produced by Janice Llamoca.
