Finalist in Financial Services, The Shorty Awards

Capital One and Upworthy tasked Glass Entertainment Group to create a dynamic, informative and realistic campaign around finances, savings and debt.

Black Veterinarians On Hit TV Show Give 100% To Animals (and People)
By Samara Lynn, Black Enterprise
January 15, 2018

It’s a phenomenon that is “kind of like a unicorn thing,” muses Dr. Diarra Blue about African American veterinarians launching and running a thriving animal hospital. And not only do they run the Cy-Fair Animal Hospital in the Houston, Texas area, but they also are the subjects of a hit TV show on the Animal Planet channel, The Vet Life. Dr. Blue is one of the stars of the show which just kicked off its third season this weekend.

The Vet Life’s other veterinarian stars include Dr. Aubrey “AJ” Ross and Dr. Michael Lavigne. The show offers insight into the day-to-day operations of a seemingly very successful and busy veterinarian practice. These doctors are not just tending to cats and dogs either. The last seasons have shown them tending to fighting roosters, hyenas, and even a tiger. The new season opened up with a very poignant look at how the hospital is dealing with not just the thousands of animals broken, injured, and stressed by the aftermath of Hurricane Harvey, but also how the doctors and staff deal with the emotions of people in the community who have suffered so much loss.

Caroline Grace is covered head to toe in tattoos.

They make her stand out, but that wasn’t always her goal, especially as a teenager.

“I didn’t like the way I looked,” Caroline admits. “I started to wear makeup to feel good about myself. But then I’d get bullied for how I wore makeup.”

It didn’t help that her family moved around a lot, which resulted in her having to adjust to six different high schools.

“I got put down a lot,” says Caroline. “I got made fun of. It was very hard for me.”

As she struggled to fit in, it was around that time that she also developed a love for tattoos.

Now, a decade and a half later, she is revisiting his life and crimes for a new two-part documentary, “Dahmer on Dahmer: A Killer Speaks.”

“People keep asking me now, ‘With all this violence, why this crime?’ And I say, ‘Because he touched every single victim with his own hands,'” Glass tells Variety about why she feels Dahmer’s crimes still continue to resonate decades after he committed and was convicted of them. “Think about that. Today we hear about these horrible mass shootings, and this is a guy that looked every single victim in the eye.”

Loving murder shows has become as basic as avocado toast and rosé.

It can be easy for viewers to forget, in the midst of the scintillating, binge-watchable drama, that murder shows are about real lives lost, and that the “cast of characters” (judges, prosecutors, defense attorneys, and suspects) are real people, too, with consequences that extend far beyond the courthouse.
