All of these women were part of a gaggle of teenagers at the Detroit Free Press back in 1992, and they made me feel like a Resident Advisor in one big newsroom dorm. They were so young and smart and savvy and cool, and they actually BELIEVED I knew what I was doing, which made me feel (relatively) young, and smart and savvy and cool, too. I shared what I knew, listened a lot, cooked for them, and tried to help guide them through their career decisions. Twenty-seven years later, Kelley Carter is a Senior Entertainment Reporter for ESPN 's "The Undefeated." She's been on every Red Carpet in America, including at the Oscars, and she's one of the best entertainment reporters in the country. Maisha Maurant is Manager, Communication & Creative Services and Chief Corporate Editor for Health Alliance Plan -Michigan. And the third woman is a Force of Nature, the modern day #SojournerTruth , the #journalist and #writer and #podcaster and Authentically Amazing Jemele Hill . So proud to say I knew them all when.
