The conversation about being black in America can't be covered in an hour, a week, a month, or even years. We invite you into our private world where a black woman and a white woman keep the conversation going. Together we talk candidly about vulnerable topics that we hope will help the corporate community to learn and grow. The change we all want to see is going to take many open, collaborative conversations and it starts here.
