Challenges of Being Black, Female & Gay in the Business World to be Discussed

Oct. 3, 2023 5p

(WGTD)---The Executive Vice President of Business Operations for the Milwaukee Bucks has a story to tell, one which she believes she’s almost obligated to relay.

Raven Jemison has achieved success in the corporate sports world…as a Black woman who’s gay. "I as a queer Black woman I sit at the intersection of three marginalized communities that have very little representation in the spaces that I'm in," Jemison said on Monday's Morning Show. "So if you look like me or love like me I hope that when you read my story that maybe you can see something that you can take from it." 

Jemison is the author of “More than Representation: The Cheat Codes to Own Your Seat at the Table.”

Monday's Morning Show interview with Greg Berg may whet your appetite to attend the Kenosha Area Business Alliance’s ‘Inspire” leadership development and networking event that’ll take place Friday, Oct. 13th at Journey Church in Kenosha. Jemison is one of the main speakers.
