MENTORSHIP FOR WOMEN OF COLOR
CREATING COMMUNITY, COALITION, AND CITIZENRY.
OUR STORY
Research has revealed that very few women of color get mentored. Even worse, many don’t even think to seek mentors. That’s how systemic racism + patriarchy work hand in hand.
IT’S TIME TO CHANGE THAT.
It’s time to equip women of color to ascend to the C-suite, run the shows, direct the films, and take over. It’s time to break up the boys’ club that has kept the gates closed off to us for too long.
