Instagram Provides update to Address Systemic Bias Within Its Systems

#BlackLivesMatter movement was gaining momentum back in June following the death of George Floyd. During the movement instagram chief Adam Mosseri posted an impassioned video response, in which he pledged to do more to address systemic bias, which, Mosseri noted, would include a review of 'all of our practices and products and policies' in order to improve Instagram's systems.

This week instagram has provided the updates with several key developments that have been implemented as a result of this renewed focus.
