Shirley Chisholm, the first Black woman to run for national office said, "If they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair." This show is mine. It's important for Black women to be in the political communications conversation so I have decided to create a space for myself.
Everyone has an agenda, we are just open about ours. The agenda is access to relevant information in order to make an informed vote.
We know it can be daunting to find information in the overload of political media. We also understand skepticism of certain large media outlets. Our goal is simple: We want to tell you what's happening-- and why it matters.
You can love something as it is and challenge it to be better. My relationship with democracy works the same way. Our fight towards equality is continuous, but America is my home and Black people are my tribe. As long as we are a country with a democracy I believe it is in our best interest to participate.
