       InquisitiveCarter.com officially launched on June 1, 2015, solely under the direction of William Carter. The website focuses on music, entertainment and culture in the Black community. 

      We also showcase emerging talented individuals (singers, dancers, painters, etc) through multi-media interviews. 

      In 2016, IC Magazine was launched, which will re-emerge in 2023. We have grown to reach roughly 100,000 plus people a year through the website alone, and have reached between 750,000 – one million people, yearly, through social media engagement alone. 

      Any thoughts, ideas, or if you want to be featured, shoot me an email.

      Ahead of the inaugural HBCU film festival in Detroit established by the Autumn Sun organization, founder and Detroit native, Bruce Clifton said the idea for the festival started in 2018 while visiting an HBCU in North Carolina. Clifton began working on ways to create opportunities for students. A film showcase process began with A&T from 2018-2020 and was set to launch in Fall 2020, but the COVID-19 pandemic began earlier that year, which resulted in shutdowns of many things across the globe. Throughout that process, Clifton said partnerships were developed which helped launch a virtual award show in 2022. With a different experience under his belt, the HBCU film festival is set for Aug. 23 and 24 in Detroit.
