Episode Synopsis

In this episode, join us for a powerful conversation with Sherrell Dorsey, the Founder & CEO of The Plug, a digital news and insights platform covering the Black innovation economy. We discuss the impact of contextualizing moments by pulling together datasets to make great stories and how to use data to make decisions, prove worth, and expose the truth. In June 2020, The Plug released a report that spurred headways by using data to call out corporations that made statements against racial and social injustice in America. As the report surfaced throughout social media streams, Dorsey’s inbox flooded with Black employees concerned about racial injustices in their companies and were now using her platform’s data report to confront their organizations.
