The Digital and Innovation Economy is in the midst of a technological revolution—one in which Black people have the best chance of not only getting in the water, but on the front side of the wave. Emerging Black technologists face new terrains as pioneers among pioneers, as well as old habits and beliefs which aren't welcoming to the possibilities of an inclusive digital landscape. Nevertheless, breakthroughs happen, thanks to trailblazers committed to not being the only Black visionary in a still very undiversified world. Join From Chains to Links and guest Latoya Peterson, Cofounder, CXO, and Director for the Culture at Glow Up Games as her pioneering journey in new media and gaming provides major keys for how rising talent can succeed in the digital economy while still being authentic to themselves and the culture.

Latoya Peterson lives at the intersection of emerging technology, video games, television, and music. She is often asked to speak about technology, race, gender, and pop culture. Named one of Forbes Magazine's 30 Under 30 rising stars in media, she is best known for the award winning blog Racialicious.com - the intersection of race and pop culture. In 2016, she produced a critically acclaimed YouTube series on Girl Gamers.
