This episode features a discussion with the all-black female cast of 5GRV (Gamers on the Road), a branded live stream reality content on Twitch that received several awards including the best content marketing platform and best video series. The members – GloZell, Leash, Tasha, and Kai – share their unique journeys into the gaming industry, overcoming norms and societal expectations, and eventually making significant strides in a space traditionally dominated by men. They also share their anticipation for their participation in the upcoming e-Sports Awards event. The discussion revolves around the importance of diversity in the gaming industry, and the cast's hopes to inspire other women of color to pursue their passion, break barriers, and make their mark in the gaming world.
