BlackFemaleProject hosted a breakout session at the Net Impact Conference in Detroit, MI on Saturday, October 26, 2019. Session attendees heard Black women leaders discuss how they navigate structural racism and sexism in the workplace. The intergenerational conversation flowed from one topic to the next keeping attendees on the edge of their seats.
