Company Description *Win With Black Women (WWBW) is a collective of intergenerational, intersectional Black women leaders from across the nationāspanning business, politics, tech, faith, labor, academia, the arts, and social movements. We come together in our personal capacities to stand united in support of Black women, driven by a shared commitment to justice, equity, and representation. Our network has grown to over 200,000 members, and our impact spans elections, judicial appointments, and cultural shifts. From championing the nomination and confirmation of Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson to advocating for Black women in the Senate to supporting the first Black woman nominated by a major party for the presidency of the United States, WWBW has grown into a powerful force advancing the leadership, visibility, and policy priorities of Black women nationwide. Talking Points/Questions *1. I believe one person can create a wave of change: My mother taught me that you can be a pebble that makes a ripple, that creates a wave, that becomes a tsunami. That belief grounds everything I doāpersonally, professionally, and politically. 2. Iāve spent my career connecting worlds that were never meant to stay separate: Whether itās politics, tech, or movement workāmy work is about uniting people, building bridges, and turning moments into movements. 3. Win With Black Women didnāt start as a campaignāit started as a declaration: We came together in 2020 to reject a toxic narrative about Black women in power. What started as one call became a community, a coalition, and a cultural force. 4. WWBW is proof that when Black women organize, we donāt just participateāwe transform: From helping confirm Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson to pushing for Brittney Grinerās releaseāweāve seen whatās possible when we move in unity. 5. WWBW is a force. But itās also a family: We gather on Sundays. We raise millions. We elevate each other. What weāve built is bigger than any electionāitās a sisterhood ready to shape the future. 6. The 2024 election changed historyāagain: For the first time, two Black women serve in the U.S. Senate. That matters. Itās not just symbolic. Itās strategic. Itās structural. Itās overdue. 7. This is a defining momentānot just for the country, but for us: A second Trump presidency threatens our rights, our communities, and our progress. But weāve never waited for someone to save us. We organize. We show up. We lead. 8. The question is not āwhat now?ā The question is āwhat are we willing to do?ā: This moment is asking something of all of us: to vote, to stay engaged, to hold power accountableānot just once every four years, but every day after. 9. Leadership isnāt about positionāitās about motion: Sometimes leadership looks like being out front. Other times, it looks like building space for others to shine. Either way, itās movement. Itās momentum. Itās power. 10. Connection is my superpower: Iāve built my workāand my successāon authentic relationships. Not transactions, but real trust. Thatās how we build lasting coalitions that win. #BEST #STRAW #SHMSSupport the show: https://www.steveharveyfm.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
