Overview
"Otherisms is a website featuring short videos covering topics that don't receive widespread coverage from mainstream media. This website combines the power of storytelling and journalism to deliver content in a non-traditional format. "Otherisms" is an umbrella term denoting the various systemic processes, in conjunction with white supremacy, which contribute to the "othering" of Black/African Americans, leaving them at a social, economic and political disadvantage." --Abstract.
