On Monday (May 2), the team kicked off a week of events with an open mic Spaces hosted via the Twitter Voices platform. Creatives, artists, poets, and storytellers were invited to share their art in written form.

It’s events like this that expand on the brand’s mission to provide creatives with a space to use their voice and share their stories.

“Home to a diverse range of unique cultures, conversations and voices, community is naturally built into Twitter’s DNA. With this as our North Star, we want Twitter to continue being a platform that recognizes, identifies, celebrates, supports, and amplifies voices from historically marginalized communities, also known as #TwitterVoices because these are the very people who make it so vibrant and unique,” Rivera concluded. “Building trust with these influential voices is key to the work we do so we also want to continue offering a space to listen, openly receive feedback around our service and multiple products, and learn from it.”

She continued: “We’re always available via the TL and DMs but to extend the ways through which the community can stay up-to-date on what we’re doing, join the conversation and create connections, we also recently launched our dedicated @TwitterVoices handle on Twitter. ”

🧵 1/ *air horn* 🗣 It’s more than just a hashtag, #TwitterVoices is a whole community. So we had to officially make our way to the TL, and here we are—for all of the voices we serve every day.
