It’s Social Media Week, again. Yay! And for all my tweeting, Tumblring, pinning and Facebook posting community of peeps out there, it’s a time for us to geek out about the wonderfulness of social sharing. And what better way for MadameNoire to celebrate than to highlight powerful and influential black women with huge social media followings.
Fast Company magazine omitted popular black women from the “Smartest Women on Twitter” list about a month ago, but we’re showcasing 12 more black women (in addition to these picks) some love for social media’s most important week.
