‘Introversion is about energy and how individuals wish to receive it. But when a dash of Blackness is added, this intersectionality changes the playing field, as Black introverts are required to reassure others that they belong.’ Jeri Bingham

I am the founder of Black Introvert Week (2/8-2/15). It was created in 2021 to celebrate Black introverts, and to educate about this unique segment of the population that is often misunderstood.
Understand what you never understood and move forward differently armed with the knowledge of the Black introverted male experience. An all-star lineup (Jay Coleman, Richard Etienne, Terrance Lee) will share their stories 2/10 for Black Introvert Week.
@rollinout 's @munsonsteed interviewed me for his CEO to CEO series in advance of Black Introvert Week. Check out, "Jeri Bingham clears up introvert misconceptions." Thanks, Munson! Link in bio to read.
What's it like being Black, introverted and male? These big-thinkers and highly analytical souls can be misjudged and misunderstood @work and @play. Let's unpack this phenomenon during Black Introvert Week.
