The Minority Leaders with Algene Sajery
Welcome to The Minority Leaders, a podcast highlighting the journeys of women of color changemakers in politics and policymaking.
I’m your host, Algene Sajery, a Capitol Hill veteran, foreign policy, national security and development finance expert, former presidential appointee, and current owner of a bespoke public affairs firm in Washington DC.
I also serve on the boards of the Leadership Council for Women in National Security and the Global Health Council, and as a member of Women of Color Advancing Peace and Security, Black Women’s Congressional Alliance, Black Professionals in International Affairs, and Women in Government Relations.
A graduate of Howard University, I am a proud member of the esteemed Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. As the first woman of color to serve as policy director -or in any senior leadership role- on the U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee, I am dedicated to increasing woman and minority representation in national policymaking and politics.
This podcast is my love letter to the next generation of women of color political and policymaking leaders. It is a clarion call to women leaders to keep breaking every glass ceiling in our paths, because America desperately needs us. Let's do this.
