We had another great morning in the JLab at our Speaker Breakfast to celebrate Black History Month. We were privileged to hear from dedicated lawyer and activist Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu and Head of Creative Equity at Channel 4 Naomi Sesay FRSA, who both shared their insightful observations, ranging from the importance of seeing Black History Month as a call to action throughout the year, to what it means to bring your authentic self to work. The event was hosted superbly by award-winning journalist and broadcaster Marverine Cole. A huge thanks to all those who attended in person, joined us on the live stream and obviously to our 3 fantastic speakers, further highlights of each can be viewed on their individual profile pages.
