Good Community: Shape the Future of Gaming During Black History Month
Building a #GoodCommunity takes a village. The groups we’re featuring this month are led and supported by Black professionals in gaming who want to empower the next generation. We’re excited to see the games industry growing and reflecting the diversity of our players and communities, and we want to shout out folks that are making that happen!
