Objectives
Revive and grow Instagram following to build community and amplify voices of marginalized groups.
Drive engagement through storytelling and a targeted content strategy, focusing on community education, the history of Rock Against Racism (RAR), Black History Month themes, and music as a form of activism.
What I did
I led social strategy and content creation for Rock Against Racism, crafting Reels, posts, and Stories to spark conversation around racial injustice. From writing captions to designing visuals and tracking performance, I ensured all content aligned with the mission. I also managed community engagement to build relationships and drive meaningful interaction.
Rock Against Racism did not have defined brand guidelines, so I implemented a comprehensive brand refresh and social templates, to ensure a a consistent and cohesive presence across all platforms.
Following brand guidelines to create an aesthetically pleasing grid that is cohesive, engaging, and shareable.
I repurposed interviews, documentaries, and concert footage into engaging short-form content for social media.
Carousels are key to any scroll-stopping strategy. I designed them to be both eye-catching and informative, blending SEO-friendly copy with educational content that keeps audiences swiping.
