As part of its campaign to increase Indigenous voices and stories, TikTok is promoting nine creators on its platform in June as part of its Indigenous Visionary Voices project, including two out of Quebec.
TikTok told CTV News in a statement that it wanted to highlight stories from the Indigenous communities throughout June"by amplifying the voices who continue to tear down barriers and misconceptions and use their platform to share the beauty, history, and heritage of the First Nations, Inuit and Metis Peoples."
Nine Indigenous creators were chosen by TikTok for its Indigenous Visionary Voices list for June, 2023. SOUCRE: TikTok "I really wanted my platform to kind of change that," he said."To kind of be a place where Indigenous youth could feel represented and feel heard because we have different upbringings and different lifestyles and different humour, and oftentimes, it's not seen in mainstream society or in the mainstream movies and media."
