She's The Bomb: Rebekah H (OnlyBlackGirl)
I stumbled across Rebekah's blog on Tumblr a few months ago and after reading a few of her posts I followed her. She blogs about social justice issues in America and through her perfect phrasing and explanations I have learned a lot. She handles harassing anonymous messages with a level of class and cool that I can only hope to achieve. She was raised in Olympia, Washington and is transracially adopted. This means that she was adopted into a white family as a person of color. Rebekah says that this is an important part of her identity and is a big factor in her perspective on the things she blogs about.
She started blogging on Tumblr a little over a year ago and had this advice for people who want to run a successful blog through Tumblr. "Just be yourself. I guess I would consider myself somewhat "successful" if success is measured by follower count, but in all honesty, I didn't set out to get followers and I'm still surprised people actually follow me. I just talked about my life and people apparently related to it." Like I mentioned earlier, Rebekah blogs a lot about social justice issues and has been passionate about social change for a long time. I also asked her if she had a dream job. I learned that she wants to combine her passion for social justice and music together to manage and support artists that don't get a lot of recognition because they don't fit social standards. Rebekah is a fantastically strong-minded individual with a style and flair that is unique to her. I will leave the link to her Tumblr below so you can read her fantastic posts and watch her take on the Internet with extreme grace and fierce beauty.
