Onyx Impact seeks to better understand how Black communities engage with information, fight harmful information ecosystems targeting Black voters, and empower Black communities. https://www.digitalgreenbook.org/
Three-Fifths wasn’t a glitch. In fact, it feels eerily relevant today.
It was the blueprint:
Use Black bodies to gain power but deny Black people the power to use it.

It feels like we're still seeing the ripple effects today.

Platforms profit from our culture, our image, and our voices but rarely protect us.

Ownership of our likeness and digital footprint isn’t optional. Staying informed and staying diligent is a must.

It’s how we stay safe, empowered, and in control.

Tyler Perry wasn’t being dramatic. He was being accurate.

Black history is being censored, sanitized, and stripped from public memory.

The Blackout Report tracks the tactics behind this erasure and the impact it has on our culture, safety, and political power.

Money. Power. Respect.
How do our communities get any of that when the blueprint is being erased?
This goes beyond politics. This is survival. We’re grateful to Jadakiss for using his voice to make sure nobody deletes our future.

🕶️ Erasure. Distortion. Suppression.

Ciera Foster breaks it all down: how history gets rewritten in real time, and why The Blackout Report isn’t just data but a mirror, a map, and a mandate.

They’re not just hiding the truth — they’re hiding the harm.

Disinformation just got an upgrade.

Distortion means rewriting truth to warp reality.

💰 $9 million cut from sickle cell research.
🤰🏾 $42 million pulled from Black maternal health programs.
📊 6,700+ federal data sets erased
🏛️ Confederate names restored on U.S. bases.

That’s not coincidence. That’s strategy.
