Send us a textJoin us for an exclusive interview with the founders of The Fortitude Collective whose mission is to create a space for the next generation of black and brown women that reaffirms, supports, and encourages them to “bring their chair” to every space they occupy. Their vision is for every black and brown woman to own their space in the world and of course "bring their chair." "Bringing their chair" as they so eloquently put it is based on the quote by their late Soror, Shirley Chisholm, who said "if they don't give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair." Congresswoman Chisholm knew all about this as the first Black congresswoman (1968), representing New York State in the U.S. House of Representatives for seven terms. Similarly, each of these ladies are blazing trails in their fields, from education to entrepreneurship these Sorors of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority Inc. are definitely a collective force, leading within and throughout their communities. Representation in our workplaces, boardrooms and elected offices is necessary and the ladies of The Fortitude Collective are ensuring this shift happens now. They are even gearing up to host their first in-person conference, "Unbossed but Bothered," an experience to show how important diversity and inclusion is for women of color.
