Protecting Black Women in Leadership Roles The State of Blossoming

- Education
Beware of the "angry black woman." Too often this has been a stereotype for many black women in the workplaces who are driven, passionate, hard working, caring, and self -aware. Why is this common thread in the workplace, society, culture, and mainstream media? Well folks, we have a internal racism problem in white- dominated leadership structure. I'm flipping the script and shifting the narrative, black women's communication, mood or emotions will not be miscategorized.
Check out this conversation with Kenyora Parham, we will shed light on how workplaces can empower and validate black women's leadership. Kenyora is the Executive Director of End Rape on Campus. Most recently, she served as EROC’s Chief of Staff. Prior to joining EROC, she served as the Assistant Director for Brandeis University's Office of Precollege Programs.
