Black Enterprise recognizes “I’m Black and I Travel” as one of seven black travelers to follow on Twitter. Makes me want to start packing again…for anyplace!
It looks as if the three years of toil that have gone so far into this travel blog are paying off. I’m Black and I Travel is starting to hit the bigtime.
Just today, the online edition of Black Enterprise magazine published a slideshow entitled “7 Black Travelers to Follow on Twitter.”
Guess who’s Number Two in the batting order? Yep!
“What makes Greg Gross’ Twitter stream so unique is the narrative and context he provides during his travels…”
I had no idea they were going to do that. I only found out through fellow African-American travelers on Facebook who happen to be friends of mine. Are we deep into social media or what?
Speaking of friends, the other six black travelers deemed worthy of following on Twitter also happen to be friends of mine, and damned good travelers, travel writers and bloggers in their own right:
- Kiratiana Freelon @kiratiana
- Mario Nicholas @MarioTravels
- Andrea Adams and Teri Johnson @travelistastv
- Brian Peters @brianepeters
- T Davis-Merchant @tryitfoodtravel
On behalf of all of us, thanks and much love to Black Enterprise for the social media shout-out. The only thing cooler than this would be to see an even longer list of black travelers singled out by Black Enterprise for 2013.
So get that passport, come on out here and join us. It’s your world. Get into it!
