Ep 004: The Experience of a Black Creative Entrepreneur with Carla Thomas
As a white creative entrepreneur, my position is one of privilege and doesn't reflect everyone's experience & definitely doesn't reflect the Black creative entrepreneurship experience. This week, I am chatting to Carla Thomas, a friend and fellow wedding photographer about her experience as a creative Black entrepreneur and what we can do as white people to be better allies. You won't hear much of my voice in this episode. It's mostly going to be Carla talking about her experience, and me doing what we should all be doing right now, which is listening and learning.
