Off-White Helps Amplify Voices In Milan

Fashion designer Virgil Abloh has launched an initiative to help small Black businesses pull through the Covid-19 pandemic with the ’I Support Young Black Businesses’ fundraiser. With its goal to raise money on a quarterly basis for organizations that support the Black community, for the first installment of this project, Off-White will support underserved neighborhoods in Chicago through CRED — which stands for “Create Real Economic Destiny” — an organization Virgil Abloh has partnered with since 2017 in his home city and is focused on reducing gun violence. Simultaneously, the brand has established a Milanese internship program that begins this September to help amplify the voices of its inspiring Afro-Italian community.

Watch the video from the Off_White Instagram page and listen to the words of @iambintadiaw, @davidblankofficial, @samisc_ and @tayviines as they showcase the ’I Support Young Black Businesses’ graphic tee.

‘In Naples We Don’t Say’ Tik Tok Series

TikToker Miriam Landi is a young Neapolitan college student who creates content in her free time and found one of her series go viral over night. ‘In Naples we don’t say’ is a series of funny videos in which Landi compares untranslatable Neapolitan expressions to English ways of saying. Hand gestures and facial expressions are what makes these videos a whole experience and are the reason why she receives nostalgic comments from Neapolitans who no longer live in the city and appreciate the series.

Learn some Neapolitan below and follow Miriam on Tik Tok @spottedlandi
