A Message From The Creator

Hi, my name is Kim Seabrooks and I am the creator of LadyRomp Inspiration Network. I am so excited because I am doing something that I truly love. The empowerment of woman is very important to me and the fact that I do not have to be famous or powerful to have a voice is extremely exciting!!!! The world we live in today is extremely connected and very small because of the internet. We have women from countries such as India and The United Kingdom becoming members of LadyRomp. That is beautiful because it just reminds me no matter where we live in the world all of our needs are the same. In the past I would have never known Pacod from Kenya or Faith from the Republic of Senegal, but with the internet that is possible. So come join us, we would love to have you. It’s the place where women meet.

Inspirational Woman Of The Day

Carol Jenkins

Carol Jenkins: Multi-Media Agitator Against Bias
Ida B. Wells Award for Bravery in Journalism

You’ll find her on Facebook, or you can follow her on Twitter, check out her blog or wait patiently until her book is published on systemic gender and racial bias in media.

The founding president of the Women’s Media Center, Carol Jenkins also serves as chair of the board of AMREF USA, an arm of the largest African health organization on the continent, leading its U.S. fundraising efforts to support programs focused on the health of African women and girls.

The ultimate media pro, Jenkins has been agitating throughout her 40-year mediacareer for fair and equal treatment of women and people of color in story assignments, pay and the coverage of women’s issues.

“I recently found a letter from 1970 from a news director that said it had come to his attention that I was attempting to organize the women in the newsroom and therefore I should feel free to leave at any time,” Jenkins recalls with a laugh.

She hung in for a 28-year broadcast career that included working for WNBC, ABC, WOR and WNYW, an Emmy and such choice assignments as covering the national political conventions and the release of South African hero Nelson Mandela from prison.

During her first “retirement,” she was an executive producer of Eve Ensler’s documentary, “What I Want My Words to Do to You.” Broadcast by PBS, and a Sundance award winner, the film is based on the writing workshops Ensler led for women in New York’s maximum security prison. Jenkins also co-authored with her daughter Elizabeth G. Hines an award-winning biography of her uncle, “Black Titan: A.G. Gaston and the Making of a Black American Millionaire.”

Jenkins was then called out of retirement by Gloria Steinem, Robin Morgan and Jane Fonda when the three began to form what would become the Women’s Media Center. At the end of a large meeting at Steinem’s home, Jenkins was recruited to be the coordinator of the nascent organization “since she had some free time.”

It was rough going at first. Many people thought that media advocacy for women was already being done, Jenkins recalls. But it wasn’t. She demonstrated that no other progressive organization existed with a mission to monitor women’s participation in media, to enhance their participation, to keep an eye on the stories produced and to comment on the sexism in those stories.

Money was raised, New York office space was donated and the Women’s Media Center was born. She continues to serve on its board because so much work remains to be done, she says.

“It is astounding that in 2011 television network executives gave the green light to series about Playboy bunnies and sexy stewardesses. Both were cancelled because women said, ‘We are not watching it.’ But the fact that the series made it to prime time makes it clear that there are still lots of tone deaf executives in the media’s C-suites,” Jenkins says.
