Essence Magazine Features Black Women In Obama’s Administration
Want to see what real #BlackGirlMagic looks like?
Essence Magazine’s November issue features some of the most powerful and dynamic Black women who help President Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama and their administration running like a tight ship!
Twenty-nine staffers gathered for a photo shoot in the Eisenhower Executive Office Building—the youngest only 23 (Jordan Metoyer, assistant to the deputy director and senior advisor to the Office of Management & Budget Director), and one with the coolest title ever: press assistant and senior wrangler (Desiree Barnes, 27). They all share a common trait, says Chynna Clayton, 27, Michelle Obama’s special assistant and trip director: “The White House is composed of people who are passionate about the country.”
Someone might want to tell T.I. that women got big things poppin’ around these parts!!!!!
