something in the grey
life isn't black or white, it's lived in the grey. we grew frustrated with the lack of nuance and depth with modern media and so "something in the grey" was born, going beyond the person in the limelight and the label people are thoughtlessly assigned to. a platform for people to share their stories, control the narrative and enable the complexity of topics to be explored. instagram: https://www.instagram.com/somethinginthegrey/
