This powerful session brings together two incredible Black British women at the forefront of media and publishing, sharing their journeys, insights, and impact.

Charlene White, a respected journalist and broadcaster, has made her mark as a trailblazer in British media. Known for her poise, intelligence, and unwavering authenticity, Charlene will reflect on her experiences—from presenting ITV News to making history as the first Black woman to host Loose Women. Her conversation with Magdalene Abraha, publisher and founder of Jacaranda Books, promises to be both thought-provoking and inspiring.
