About the Work

Racist language is everywhere in online gaming, but even though over 80% of gamers face harassment, developers haven’t done anything to stop it. We turned Twitch’s built-in clip function into a weapon for gamers to fight racism themselves and, working with the organization Melanin Gamers, created The Watch ⁠— gaming’s first community watch. To join, you just had to clip racism on Twitch and DM it to us on Twitter, where we put pressure on developers to take action and built a community of allies that continues to grow to this day.
