Created narrative of the entire campaign, likening a mentor’s ability to help young people in need of career guidance to a superpower. From the announcement post forward, The Spotlights were characterized as heroes saving next-gen talent from the systemic and structural racism that is exacerbating Covid-19’s crippling effects on Black America’s working-class community.
