Meet The POC Sex Workers Giving You The Creme De La Creme Of Ethical Porn
I believe the following Will Ferrell quote was once used to describe the rare sighting of "N*ggas in Paris": "It's provocative — it gets the people going." Yet if I didn't know any better, I'd think it was actually referring to the feigned outrage surrounding pornography throughout the decades. And surely, it's applicable.
For as long as porn has been around, humans have indulged it — at first in secret and then not so much. Our shame and need for repentance hasn't come to a halt but it surely has dwindled quite a bit. If sex sells (because everyone is watching it and doing it), then it's the irony for me — the irony that we would castigate those who bring us excruciating pleasure for delivering what we want. Men lie, women lie, but the numbers do not!
And while we break free of our own shame, it seems that sex workers in the adult entertainment biz have boldly been asked to carry the shame load of shame we got off, while being castigated to unethical standards and exploitation. And where there may have been a progression in the digital age, laws such as SESTA and FOSTA set all sex workers back (some more than others, but still harmful). Thankfully, we're seeing many sex workers reclaim some of the powerlessness that came with those laws through platforms such as OnlyFans and Patreon.
The greatest benefit of these platforms is that it has lifted the burden of sex workers having to give up hefty chunks of their profit or compromise on their value due to shady production companies, and sites like PornHub that don't pay for the work they post. Industry folks are finding new, innovative ways to take charge of their art and autonomy — ensuring the creation of ethical porn — porn that properly compensates, protects (from on-set harassment and assault), and serves its workers and consumers (albeit a bit differently).
Really quickly: Black porn consumers are often relegated to racial stereotypes, misinformation regarding pleasure and consent, and much more.
Below are 5 of my favorite creme de la creme favorites of ethical, blackity-black porn. These sex workers are creating waves in the adult entertainment industry, serving up orgasms and opportunities to educate. An intimate index featuring all shapes. Sizes. Complexions. Kinks. Now tell me that isn't a happy ending.
1.Raquel Savage
You've definitely seen me rave about Raquel Savage and her thirst trap series on Instagram, but her paid content is even better — worth every penny you won't regret the decision to subscribe. And that's off the strength of the JOI vid alone.
2.King Noire
Mister King Noire is the jack of all trades. From his music career to his production company, he's more than a hard body. But his solid abs and nice size...endowment sure do make a gyal curious. Not to mention the range he brings with his co-stars. In fact, you may notice a few features from this list here.
3.Professor GAIA
The people have spoken and a fan favorite, indeed! Gaia never disappoints. *mic drop*
4.Elexus Jionde
SHOW FUCKING STOPPER! That's what she is! Elexus offers top-tier content with her gifs. If you're not hooked by the time you scroll through that thread — I mean, that won't even happen so I'm not worried. This is genuinely one of my favorite accounts as she puts energy into whatever character she's tapping into. Sis stays serving lewks and body (check the Velma and Daphne look).
5.Jessa Jordan
Jessa brings big personality to her nudes, video, and all that she does. Jessa's works of art are thoughtful masterpieces to say the least.

UnPrisonedhas returned for its highly anticipated second season, delving deeper into the complex dynamics of the Alexander family.
The series premiere comes a year after its debut season garnered rave reviews from fans and critics and earned record-breaking ratings for Hulu's Onyx Collective brand. UnPrisoned's success can be attributed to its raw, relatable themes and comedic appeal.
Inspired by creator Tracy McMillan's life, the show follows Paige (Kerry Washington), a therapist and single mother whose life takes an unexpected turn when her father, Edwin (Delroy Lindo) --who was released from prison-- moves in with her and her teenage son, Finn (Faly Rakotohavana).
Throughout UnPrisoned's first season, viewers witnessed how Edwin's incarceration deeply affected Paige's life and relationships. In the series, Paige unpacks her trauma through interactions with her inner child and her online followers. Meanwhile, Edwin is overcoming specific struggles with his own past that led to his life of crime, including a dysfunctional upbringing and his mother's arrest. As the Alexanders attempt to reconcile, new challenges arise.
This new season promises to further explore their unconventional family dynamic. Here are several compelling reasons why season two of UnPrisoned should be on everyone's watchlist.
The Alexander Family Life Is Still In Shambles
UnPrisoned's second season resumes where the series left off, with Paige grappling with the fallout from her troubled therapy practice and Edwin navigating life independently after moving out. Meanwhile, Finn faces his own challenges. The teenager is battling anxiety and seeking information about his father—a topic Paige avoids discussing.
The Alexander Family Are Attending Therapy To Resolve Their Underlying Issues
Amid the chaos in their lives, the Alexander family decides to mend their bond by confronting their past traumas. They seek professional help and attend therapy sessions with a “family radical healing coach,” played by John Stamos, a new cast member. This collective effort aims to unravel the complexities of their shared history and strengthen their relationships.
The process of unraveling each character's internal conflicts and their potential impact on future relationships may clash with Paige's textbook therapy approach. While Paige is used to being in the therapist's seat in both career and family, this forces her into the unfamiliar role of a patient during therapy sessions. This shift would compel her to look in the mirror and try a radically different approach.
The Alexander Family Learned A Big Lesson During A Therapy Session
In therapy, the Alexanders are tasked with addressing their individual traumas to salvage their remaining relationships. One of the family therapist’s eccentric suggestions was an exercise involving a family wrestling match. During this session, Paige faces tough questions about her refusal to share information about Finn's father.
While it's unclear whether this scene is reality or fantasy, the image of the family duking it out in the ring certainly makes for hilarious yet compelling television.
Paige Tries Dating Again Following Failed Relationships
Amid her life's chaos, Paige decides to step back into the dating field. However, her many attempts have left her with mixed results. The dating apps have turned out to be a fail, and an outing with her ex Mal (Marque Richardson), who is also her father's parole officer, doesn’t go quite as expected after he brings an unexpected guest – his new girlfriend.
The situation takes an awkward turn when Mal's new partner learns why the former couple split, partly due to Paige's self-sabotage.
UnPrisoned Is A Perfect Balance Of Comedy And Drama
As a dramedy, UnPrisoned takes a comedic approach to its heavy subjects. The show takes us on a ride with Paige's dating misadventures and navigating a friendship with her ex.
Other lighthearted moments include Edwin's attempts at CPR based on online videos and, of course, the antics of the Alexander family's unconventional new healing coach.
The second season of UnPrisoned is now available on Hulu.

Actor Jessie T. Usher reveals his secrets for maintaining his physical appearance while filming Amazon Prime's The Boys.
The series, which spans four seasons, follows vigilantes as they battle corrupt superheroes. In The Boys, Usher portrays Reggie Franklin, also known as A-Train, a superhero with incredible speed.
During a recent Men's Health magazine interview, the 32-year-old spoke about his diet and workout regimens. These routines help Usher stay in shape for the show's stunt work, which involves intense cardio to match his character's super-speed abilities.
In the discussion, he revealed his workout regimen consists of resistance training and cardio. On rest days, the Shaft star incorporates yoga and stretching into his routine.Jessie On What He Eats In a Day
Regarding his diet, Usher shared he typically eats three meals daily with minimal variations. He begins each day by hydrating and waiting an hour or two before breakfast. On production days for The Boys, Usher opts for eggs with herbs and seasonings, accompanied by fruit.
The Dangerous Lies actor keeps it light for lunch with protein-rich options like quinoa bowls or salads with lentils, chicken, and vegetables from CAVA. Dinner is his heartiest meal, featuring chicken and fish (particularly sea bass or salmon), after which he refrains from eating for the rest of the night.
Usher focuses on protein intake for all his meals rather than counting macro calories to support muscle growth. He boosts his protein with peanut butter shakes. While maintaining a disciplined diet, The Almost Christmas star allows himself occasional indulgences like Funyuns or Nutter Butters. To round out his health regimen, Usher takes daily vitamins.
Jessie On His Diet And Workout Routine For "The Boys"
When asked about adjusting his diet or workout routine for his role in The Boys, Usher explained that his health-conscious lifestyle eliminates the need for significant changes.
“Honestly, no. Because by the time I got to The Boys I was already health conscious. Very much aware of what I was putting in my body and how,” he said.
Regarding his workouts, Usher revealed he tailors his routines to include more diverse cardio exercises. This approach ensures he's physically prepared for the scenes he shoots for the show.
“A day of working out for The Boys is a little bit different. I feel like I added more variations of cardio work,” he stated. “When [you’re shooting] you just have no idea what they’re about to throw at you. I just want to be ready for all of those challenges, especially the cardio things. I just wanted to have the endurance to be able to get through whatever type of scene that I would possibly be shooting.”
Season four of The Boys is now streaming on Amazon Prime.
