#Harlem-born talk show host and DJ #KerwinFrost has announced plan for the first annual Kerwin Frost Telethon Supershow, a 12-hour variety show and auction that will raise awareness about racial injustice. Frost has a goal of raising $5 million, which will be donated to #ColinKaepernick's @knowyourrightscamp. (See the flier on the slide for more details on making a donation.)

The effort includes a collaboration with #CactusPlanFleaMarket as led by #CynthiaLu. The capsule includes a giant pencil inspired by Frost's face tattoo plus a blue #hoodie and pink t-shirt. The collection will drop on August 11 at 12:00 PM EST on shop.kftelethon.com.

The telethon will be filmed at The Berrics skatepark in downtown Los Angeles on TikTok LIVE, YouTube and Twitch, on Sunday, August 16th at 12:00 PM EST.

Conservative commentator Ben Shapiro cries harder

Conservative commentator Ben Shapiro cries harder about #CardiB's #WAP video.

Really though, were the song lyrics that vulgar or are people just jumping on the bandwagon because it's the topic du jour?

We reached out to designer @nicolemclaughlin #Nic

We reached out to designer @nicolemclaughlin #NicoleMcLaughlin's about her orange-themed conceptual shoe design getting knocked off and sold (both versions on slide) and she responded with a written statement.

We very much agree with her conclusions in which she writes: "No creator should feel like they can't share their work for fear of being plagiarized. If I had never shared mine, I wouldn't be in the position I am today. It's a risk, but ultimately you hope there are companies out there looking to do the right thing."

Having a concept stolen may be feel different than a fast fashion retailer blantantly recreating a designer dress, but the threadline is the same. You're using Instagram as a draft for ideas that in a pre-internet world would have been paid for with a consultation fee.

Putting a punctuation point on concept thievery, billionaire Kanye West recently posted a "color study" moodboard on Twitter. Guess whose conceptual design was among his selections? And yes, it's just one image, arguably no big deal, but if you follow and love a designer's work, why not invite her in and make the magic happen?

p.s. McLaughlin is currently auctioning some one-off pieces in an effort with @allbirds and @chinatownmarket to raise funds for @sunrisemvmt and @theokraproject. One-hundred percent of proceeds will go to benefiting these causes. More info available in her Ig bio.
