Meet Yuri Carter, Fashion’s Go-To Source For Vintage Designer Finds

Welcome to the Amplifying Our Voices newsletter — a weekly digest to help keep your ear to the ground, centering and celebrating underrepresented voices changing fashion, beauty, entertainment, and tech for the better. We’re talking interviews with your faves like the creator and star of Abbott Elementary, Quinta Brunson, the latest and greatest TikTok trends, and the convos about black nail culture we deserve. Our friends at The Zoe Report thought this might be your vibe but, if not, don’t worry — you can unsubscribe here.

I’m Sammie and I’ll be writing this newsletter. I’m a chaotic (in the fun way) Scorpio, very into karaoke and podcasts — I like sound! This is a brand new project, and I’d love to know what you think — what stories you’d like to see more (or less) of, if you have any issues receiving it, or if you just wanna send me fit pics. Hit my line when the mood strikes you!

I’m excited to be sending the first of these on the heels of Juneteenth and Father's Day, smack dab in the middle of Pride month. If you found yourself on the grill for any (or all) of these reasons over the weekend, again, hit my line. As we’ve seen over the past two years, corporate “celebrations” of what is meant to be a Black liberatory holiday are generally a mess and this year is no exception! But, that doesn't mean we aren't keen to support black-owned businesses today and every day, so we've got a roundup of those too. Plus, Black creatives across industries that you should be paying attention to. This newsletter contains multitudes!

The Unrealized Power Of Juneteenth
