Mila Jam
During Black History Month, we will spotlight the voices of Black creatives. From content creators to co-founders, we’ve asked questions to those that inspire us to tell us what’s on their mind. The interview questions remain the same throughout, but the answers provide a unique view of every single person.
Mila Jam is a transgender singer, songwriter, dancer, actress, and activist. With hits like ‘Twilight Zone’ and ‘Eye On You’, Mila is an important asset to the modern queer music scene, using her platform to spotlight LGBTQ+ issues.
What does Black History Month mean to you?
Being unapologetic about my royal existence. Celebrating the culture that has literally created everything for everyone.
How does your storytelling speak to the Black experience?
My storytelling is of thriving in my Black Trans excellence. Even when people have counted me out, they end up realizing how much they need my gifts.
What kind of stories do you feel still need to be highlighted for the Black queer community.
More stories of Black Queer & Trans Equity. Financial gain and success. It is our time.
In celebration of Black History Month, Revry has curated a powerful collection of stories told by Black artists featuring films, TV series, music, and more. See the playlist on Revry.
