The influence of Black food (and travel) content creators

Nearly everybody gets travel inspiration from the social media accounts they follow, or from accounts that are shown on their feeds. Today we’re looking at the people who have charted a path down food and travel influencing – or, as they like to be known, content creators – but specifically by and for Black food and travel businesses and travelers. And we’re mingling this with a new study from MMGY that talks about the size and scope of the Black travel market, now up to a spend of $145 billion in 2023, mostly on transportation and food and beverage. Talking travel and content creation today are the author of our cover story on the subject, Mariette Williams, and Richmond, Va.-based Dominic Brown, who created and manages the account and website Tall Travel Eats.  Episode sponsor This episode is sponsored by TTC Tour Brands https://agents.ttc.com/login Related links Black food influencers explore and inspire https://www.travelweekly.com/Travel-News/Travel-Agent-Issues/Following-Black-influencers MMGY’s latest report on Black travel spending: https://mmgyintel.com/u-s-black-travel-market-is-now-a-145-billion-audience-according-to-new-research/ Dominic Brown https://talltraveleats.com/ Mariette Williams https://www.instagram.com/mariettewrites/ Instagram accounts for influencers in this episode Dominic Brown aka @talltraveleats https://www.instagram.com/talltraveleats/ Sierra Redmond aka @Iamsierrared https://www.instagram.com/iamsierrared Mitzie Lewis aka @Frencht0asty https://www.instagram.com/frencht0asty Avyana Chapman aka @Goodeatsonlyyy https://www.instagram.com/goodeatsonlyyy/ Journeys With Kris aka @journeyswithkris https://www.instagram.com/journeyswithkris/ Martinique Lewis aka @marty_sandiego https://www.instagram.com/marty_sandiego/ Black Foodie https://www.instagram.com/blackfoodie.co/ Shakeema Smith, aka The Passport Abuser https://www.instagram.com/thepassportabuser/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
