Presence to Power with Rashad Robinson

MSW Media
About this episode

We are really excited for you all to hear this great conversation about how we can all build power and yes, win these existential fights. For more than two decades, Rashad Robinson’s strategic campaigns, media expertise and movement leadership have played a critical role in winning real change for real people.

Rashad led Color Of Change for nearly fourteen years, transforming it from a start-up into a national force for racial justice and Black political power. Prior to that, he led programs and advocacy at GLAAD during a period of major cultural and political progress for LGBT people. His work and insights are regularly featured across broadcast, print and social media and he has a new book out called: “From Presence to Power - How to Take On the Fights That Matter and WIN.”
