NOIR BLACK BUSINESS CLUB UNIVERSITY OF LOUISVILLE Executive Cabinet Members I n an effort to create new pathways for our next Black generation ages 9 to 24, Noir Black Chamber of Commerce Inc. has begun establishing Noir Black Business Clubs on college campuses across Kentucky, as well as online club platforms for elementary school, middle school, and high school students to engage in business education and professionals skills learning earlier, in the hope of increasing the number of successful Black entrepreneurs and Black corporate professionals over time. In doing so, the first Noir Black Business Club was established at the University of Louisville in 2022, and today it is growing by leaps and bounds, due to a strong leadership team lead by a group of fierce Black students, who are focused on learning the necessary skills to move themselves and their families towards a higher economic and social standing within one generation. College members are also connected to internships, job placement opportunities, and volunteer TeleMentors through an online mentoring platform that provides them with additional support and guidance by Black professional role models. The 2023-2024 Noirbbc UofL Executive Cabinet is led by Topanga Miller, President; Tejanee Jones, Vice President; Ronisha Malone, Secretary; Ka’Lynn Johnson, Treasurer and Sha’Nyia Sawyers, Social Media Manager. Their efforts are supported by Antasia Chapman, Director of Programming for Noirbcc, and Dr. Randy Whetstone Jr., the club’s Academic Advisor and UofL Clinical Assistant Professor for the Department of Educational Leadership, Evaluation and Organizational Development.
