Black Creatives: Getting Your Foot in the Door and Beyond
"Almost always, the creative, dedicated minority has made the world better". - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (GRS’55, Hon.’59)Black creatives have become more visible. Now what? Will visibility lead to real power and influence? Or will our genius, our voices, and our culture simply be for the consumption and improvement of others?How do we get our foot through the door to secure our seat at the table?We explore these questions, and more, in this candid, one-hour conversation designed to help Black creatives navigate the media and communications industries. We’ll also discuss tips and resources for allies, advocates, and accomplices who are looking to create opportunities and empower Black creatives.
