  • I use my creativity as a catalyst for social change and my voice as a tool to close the gap in conversations, resources, and community for young men of color in creative industries. Partnering with SanDisk to bring this innovative product to life has allowed me to share my story while empowering the next generation of Black creators.

    David George, multicultural marketer and author of Black Boy, Create!

  • I built Saturday AM as a home for new talented global creators, but also for new characters who help to normalize diversity in the manga community. Such an endeavor wouldn’t be possible without reliable storage technology and that’s why it’s such an honor to partner with SanDisk on their SanDisk Extreme Portable SSD - Afrofuturism Edition, which blends functionality with artistry.

    Frederick L. Jones, Saturday AM  

  • This drive represents more than aesthetics; it embodies the cultural significance championed by the Black Professionals Network — also known as the We.Elevate Employee Resource Group at Western Digital. As a board member of We.Elevate and Director of Product Marketing at Western Digital, I hope that ERG can help us authentically express our culture and champion inclusivity. This drive is a symbol of our commitment to inspiring creativity within the community.

    Started in 2013, Saturday AM is a minority-owned brand built to compete with major manga publishers from Japan.

    Creator-owned, so while Saturday AM’s content is exclusive, creators own their work, and a number of them are co-owners of the company.

    Built to highlight diversity with key staff members and creative teams from 15 countries, including Africa, Europe, Eastern Asia, and the Americas.

    Launched as a digital company before moving into physical and digital book distribution with partnerships out of England and Japan.

    Nominated for five major book awards — with a 6th on the way — with a majority for the CLOCK STRIKER series.
