Data shows Black female entrepreneurs are the fastest-growing demographic of entrepreneurs. However, there are challenges, such as a lack of venture capital investment, resources and mentorship.
Southern Black Girls Consortium is now seeking to empower Black female entrepreneurs between the ages of 14 to 24. The organization, also known as Southern Black Girls, recently launched the Dream Investment Program.
On Friday’s edition of “Closer Look,” LaTosha Brown, the visionary founder of the Southern Black Girls, talked about the goals and application process for the Dream Investment Program. She told show host Rose Scott that sexism and racism are realities for Black women and girls, but their dreams matter.
