“58 years ago this month, 4 North Carolina A&T students held first major sit-in of civil rights movement at Greensboro Woolworth. They were 18 & 19 at time. A reminder of the power young activists have”

Badass Black Women History Month: Celebrating 28 Black Women Who Said, “Fuck it, I’ll Do It!” Day 8: Amber Ruffin The First Black Woman to Write for Late Night
Late-Night TV talk shows are cultural touchstones. They tell us what the world thinks is important, funny or just relevant. From Johnny Carson to Seth Meyers, the late-night talk show has remained a staple of network television. However, throughout the history of these shows, there have been no black female writers behind the scenes. That is until Amber Ruffin joined the staff of Late Night with Seth Meyers in 2014.
A Nebraska native, Ruffin made a name for herself in comedy when she moved to Chicago. She quickly became an improv favorite and started working for the Second City and Boom Chicago. After failing to make the cut for SNL, she thought her career was over––until Seth Meyers asked if she could move to New York in 6 days to write for him. Ruffin brings a much needed voice to the late night scene.

From where I stand, I see so many people who should be in writing rooms or on television shows that aren’t and it’s maddening. I realize that it might be part of my future to close this gap and I would be thrilled to do that.
