Oh this is amazing!! I was just thinking the other day about how cool it'd be to have a physical newsletter for blackstack to add on my coffee table stack of zines (trying to bring back physical media). Love this!
I randomly stumbled across BlackStack after I started back writing here and it has made a difference in my life. Like I tell you all the time, thank you for this platform, Jacquie. Not only have you added so much substance to our community, but you've also given people like me a place to speak and be seen. I'm so excited to see BlackStack become a household name!
BlackStack become a household name! Damn, I wasn't even there! Wow, I'm stuck on this line. I am so glad you stumbled across BlackStack, Jamiya! This comment has me speechless and overflowing with joy because why would you say all these nice things about me? Thank you love!!!
Thank you love! If you want to write for the first edition go ahead and get on the list for September's writers or just enjoy the newsletters. Either way, I'm glad you are here!
Omg omg I’m so happy about this and for you! I attended the last writers circle and whew🥹 it’s funny because I was just thinking today it’s time to show the world what that one session has promoted for ya girl ( retrograde is over so post coming this weekend lol) but yeah you better go head with ya bad self 🫂💗!
Ps. I would love love love to contribute for September (soonest available) and I will be reaching out further to connect! and
Awww thanks, Tabitha! It's what I do it for, bring my dreams to reality but this time it's not about me and I'm excited to bring Black writers to the front this time.
So I gathered some visuals so you could see what I had in my minds eye. I’ll message them to you. When I say posters, I mean placing words/phrases curated by BlackStack on designs or photographed work that matched the BlackStack vibe. Think graphic design, photography, and typography.
I'm glad it was received so well, but it's been on my mind for a couple of weeks and it just flowed. I love a good update so I'm excited to share more!
I went to Mickalene Thomas’s artist talk last month and she mentioned how Black magazines are a dying art. She sourced many of her images for collages from Jet Magazine (RIP!) and she talked about how these magazines were integral for capturing the full zeitgeist of Black culture and people in one place. I’m so glad we’re bringing this back!
Jacquie, i love how you show up for us and your commitment to transparency! i’m really looking forward to the next chapter of BlackStack!
Thank you, Shanté! I am really looking forward to this next chapter as well! I can't wait!

THE perfect Christmas present 🤗, I'm a visual art lover and would love to have a BlackStack print or poster on my wall 👀.
Ideas...tell me more about this poster!
So I gathered some visuals so you could see what I had in my minds eye. I’ll message them to you. When I say posters, I mean placing words/phrases curated by BlackStack on designs or photographed work that matched the BlackStack vibe. Think graphic design, photography, and typography.
Jacquie I'm so proud of you! This is all fantastic news and I'm glad everything is moving in the right direction.🖤✨🥂
Thank you, Alex! Everything is going exactly the way it's meant to it feels.
Amazing!! When things are supposed to be, they become. Congrats, love!
