I have spent almost two months investigating and documenting targeted racial abuse of black children on one of the biggest social networking sites in the world. There is zero news or YouTube coverage about this problem, and I am currently the only one actively documenting it. I don't have a huge platform, so it is hard for me to get engagement. I didn't succeed spreading the word on other places, so Substack is my last resort.
Other than that, my week is fine. Gonna take a break from all the horrors.
If you've got data, reach out the either ProPublica or The Guardian. Sucks to lose the single byline, but they have far more resources.
