MacKenzie Green's story has been many things, but boring is NOT one of them. This Ivy League-educated, would-be Olympian, Miss USA top contender, marketing maven, sports (and Marvel) aficionado, daughter to an icon, and icon in the living's story has been full of side steps and, "eh, why not" moments that have led her on an amazing journey and exposed her to a myriad of realities that have perfectly positioned her to impact the community and the world around her. The daughter of Civil Rights luminary and member of the Little Rock 9 (or just "the nine" as the cool kids call it) Ernest Green, Mackenzie has successfully found ways to consistently navigate through her varied realities in a way that brings people along for the ride and breaks down even the most complex of ideas into concepts that people can quickly, easily, and happily understand.
A NATIVE of DC (please don't come for her with that Chevy Chase/DMV BS), she was introduced at an early age to the power of story and your voice's unique ability to tell it. As the Social Media Director for BET+, Mackenzie and her team are tasked with daily engaging predominantly black audiences with content from the brand that informs and entertains, but also empowers and uplifts. As a co-host of the Taylor Strecker Show, she engages with predominantly white audiences and tries her best to encourage them to know just a little bit more about the black experience...and how to season food with more than just salt. This is a hilarious ride that spans ALL the topics ranging from socio-economic justice, to morbid hilarity in musicals, and memes as a form of protest and progress. So, sit back and enjoy this one. It's completely ok to listen to it in stints- it's probably the only way to keep your side from consistently hurting anyway.
