A Year After Creating Megan Thee Stallion's #SavageChallenge, TikToker Keara Wilson Earns Her Copyrights

Black TikTokers are taking back their creativity one step at a time! In light of the TikTok strike that erupted on the platform late June, Black TikTok is now taking a public stand for their creativity and viral contributions.
