This section of the NABFEME website is about
strong, cutting-edge career women who through courage, resilience
and wisdom have helped to redefine the place and positioning
of women of color in music and entertainment. These women
have made significant achievements with few role models or
mentors
and sometimes with little social support. They
are NABFEME trailblazers
women who wear HIGH HEELS
IN HIGH PLACES. They are women who seized the moment,
took advantage of emerging opportunities and helped to create
new standards, thus becoming prototypes for professional career
growth. We have an opportunity to learn from their experiences
and enable ourselves to develop stronger and more definitive
careers.
This page is not about showcasing super
stars or well-known women. Rather it is about typical career
women who represent untypical career advancement circumstances.
You will be inspired, shocked, amused and amazed by their
stories. By sharing their career stories with you, NABFEME
hopes to honor these women for their ability and while allowing
you to profit from their experiences.
