Sitting down with Wall Street Journal editor Stan Parish during LA18, DeBaun spoke candidly about both the challenges and the opportunities in the current media landscape, including what she’s learned from the recent failures of mainstays in black media and the importance of empowering audiences to have honest dialogues about issues they disagree on.

In this session, Debaun opens up about the strategies and tactics she’s used to grow Blavity into the success it is today. She details how the company generated its first revenue, offers guidance on navigating the ups and downs of fundraising, and gives practical advice for anyone interested in starting a media or content company.
