Black & Successful
A podcast that is changing the narrative about Black People, Success, & Culture.
About Us
In America, black people have been taught that their history began with slavery. This not only can impact one’s view regarding themselves, but it also place a biased perspective and narrative on the black race in America. For centuries, black people do not have the same opportunities as White America. We see this in our educational system, corporate America, Healthcare disparities, and more. This sigma is reflects the over incarceration rate of black people as well as the poverty income gap and communities.
Black & Successful Podcasts goal is to interrupt these negative perspective and change the narrative pertaining to the black experience, culture, and how we define success. This podcast will be a standalone resource bridging the gap for income, career, and developmental opportunities. We are not just going to talk about it but will do something about it. We are Black and Successful. We will bring in guest speakers across industries that will share their success secrets and how you can achieve that level access (and beyond) as well.
No more searching for what to do and where to go, we got you covered ✊🏼✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿! No excuses… just successful.
