Just in time for this year’s Super Bowl and Black History Month, Emily sits down with Sandra Douglass Morgan, President of the Las Vegas Raiders and Vice Chair of the Las Vegas Super Bowl Host Committee, to talk about her deep love for her hometown and the process of bringing the Super Bowl to entertainment capital of the world for the first time ever. Sandra, the first Black woman to serve as an NFL team president, is no stranger to smashing glass ceilings, having been the first Black city attorney in the state of Nevada and the first Black person and second woman to chair the state’s Gaming Control Board. On this episode of She Pivots, Sandra shares how she’s striving to open doors for other women and why football fans are going to have an experience like no other this Super Bowl Sunday.
