Oh hello there. I’m so happy that you took a bit of your day to stop by Urban Cosplayers. I am your online host. My name is Coconut Jacobs, But you can call me CJ, my friends do.
I started this website because we all know that minority creatives are underrepresented in the c
I enjoy seeing diversity in cosplay but we are all spread out over the web. There is no single place where we can come together and celebrate each other’s craft. I saw an opportunity to fill a void and to be a linchpin of trust. To build a community where Black, Hispanic, Indian… minority … cosplayers can come together in our own little place in cyberspace and create something glorious.
I strive to make this an online place to network, get to know each other, and become an extended family.
Yep, I’m making that a new thing, you heard it here first people!
I am going to showcase unrecognized talent, discuss some issues plaguing our community, and rejoice in the friendships we build.
I am just getting set up. hope you stick around to have some fun.
