The DateKeepers are committed to ending the "It bleeds, it leads" paradigm and re-centering the human stories behind every triumph and tribulation. We reject the negativity that permeates the media and the toxic positivity that predominates in popular culture. Instead, we celebrate creativity, aspiration, resilience, imperfection, and the individuals who manifest these qualities through the art of storytelling.
