What better way to start Black History Month than to be as Black as possible? Black Twitter is constantly producing epic trends and promoting togetherness. It’s like the lit family reunion that doesn’t end until the wee hours of the morning, only this one is on the Internet. A conversation between two users sparked #TwitpicTheBlackestPictureinYourPhone.
