The woman behind some of your favorite gifs takes us to the future. See what being a woman on the web may look like.

But when Jasmyn started working there, she couldn’t find many gifs that looked like her. "Just having Beyonce and Rihanna and Nicki Minaj is not enough to say you're representing black women." So she made her own.
