For US Black History Month, excerpts from the panel "Power: Is It a Sexual Thing?" at the National Association of Black Journalists conference 1991 held in Kansas City, Missouri. Moderator: Beverly "Bevy" Smith from Black Entertainment TV. Panelists: economist and columnist Julianne Malveaux; Gwendolyn Grant from the Kansas City Urban League and KCTP public TV; columnist Dorothy Butler Gilliam, first African American woman reporter at The Washington Post; and anthropologist Niara Sudarkasa, president of Lincoln University. A very vibrant - almost rollicking - discussion among distinctive viewpoints on Black women's power and that of their communities. Updated to 2024.
