Invisible Genius – Four Black Strategists Discuss Life In Advertising

For this episode of Sweathead, VMLY&R's Kevin Brockenbrough collects a few of his favorite minds to share their experiences as black strategists working in advertising in the USA: Simone Pratt (Ogilvy), Deadra Rahaman (Huge), and Emanuel Basnight (Power Twist). This episode is from a live recording. Kevin was due to host the whole session but had some technical challenges so you’ll hear his powerful voice at the start and then towards the end when he rejoined us. Big thanks to Simone for taking over as the session’s center of gravity.
