In this unique [Instagram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buyblack)-based initiative, 46 Black women will be taking over the accounts of 46 White women with extensive social followings, using their platforms and followers to spread awareness and to share their voices. Some examples of the takeover pairings include [Black Lives Matter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/barbie-3) co-founder Opal Tometi taking over model Ashley Graham's page, and [fashion and beauty editor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/it-feels-good-to-be-seen) Kahlana Barfield Brown taking over Julia Roberts' page.
