Colorlines Audience Graph • Social Signal

Colorlines' top 10 neighbors form a tight cluster of activists and activism organizations, with no single dominant outlier pulling the shape into a spike — scores run from 0.98 down to 0.95 across a mix of subcategories.

The shape is flat, meaning the top neighbors sit within a narrow band rather than one or two pulling far ahead. Color Of Change leads at 0.98, followed closely by Black Lives Matter at 0.97 — both Organizations subcategorized as Activism. From there, the set broadens into individual Celebrities and Influencers: Ava DuVernay (0.97, Artists), Matthew A. Cherry (0.97, Directors), Bree Newsome (0.97, Activists), DeRay Mckesson (0.97, Activists), and Brittany Cunningham (0.96, Activists). The one fellow News Publisher in the top 10 is BBC News Africa at 0.96. Rounding out the set are Jeffrey Wright (0.95, Actors) and Shaun King (0.95, Activists).

Tallying the subcategories: five of the ten neighbors are Activists or Activism organizations, making that the dominant kind in the cluster. The remaining five span Artists, Directors, Actors, and one News Publisher — all cross-kind relative to Colorlines' own News Publisher subcategory, with BBC News Africa the sole same-kind neighbor in the top 10.

The overall picture is an audience defined less by news consumption as a category and more by a consistent orientation toward racial justice activism and the cultural figures associated with it.
