When someone has the courage to tell their own story, it empowers others to embrace their own. Chelsea and Executive Producer Jordan Moncada unpack Issa Rae’s journey from “The Misadventures of Awkward Black Girl” and how her DIY journey has inspired Glamorous Trash’s new project: Behind the Bangs, a year-long program designed to help you craft, pitch, and share your story alongside a supportive creative cookie community.
