Unapologetic Communications and Mapenzi Productions are honored to come together during ESSENCE Fest in 2023 and 2024 to celebrate Black women's brilliance.

 

We are intentionally bringing together Black women visionaries and leaders, and those who disrupt alongside us -- who are also excelling in their respective fields -- across sectors in the hopes of fostering long-lasting relationships that will help move beyond just changing the narrative to changing what’s possible for Black women and our communities. 

 

We are creating a movement -- not just a moment -- that is sparked by this gathering and meeting of the minds to build collective action. 

 

Together, we are building a new table, where we will keep telling our own stories. 

 

We would like to thank Trell Thomas for his vision, The Pop Culture Collaborative, Hallmark Mahoghany and Diageo for their support.
