Black In Media

Power of the Pivot with Nina Parker

Join us Saturday, November 16 at 11 a.m. PT for Power of the Pivot, a fireside chat with TV host and fashion designer Nina Parker.

Several newsrooms and companies have been impacted by the squeeze happening across the media industry in recent times leaving many of us asking ourselves “so, what now?” With so many layoffs and organizational restructures happening locally and nationwide, we know things are really hard for our members and colleagues here in LA. Many of you are experiencing job loss and if you are still working, you're probably feeling the burn from doing more with less.

With this in mind, we want to provide a space for our members to hear from someone who has found success throughout her career leveraging her range of skills to master the art of pivoting.

We’ve invited Nina Parker to share her career experience that has been filled with similar challenges. During this one-on-one conversation with NABLJA President Shar Jossell, we’ll have a real talk about all of this and more with an opportunity for guests to join the conversation too.

This year’s discussion, moderated by NABJLA President Shar Jossell, focuses on the multifaceted experiences and contributions of Black women in media across the political landscape.
