Streamin' With a Purpose

Episode 18: Taking Issue With 'Ms. Correcto' Andrea Butler


Listen Later

In this episode of Streamin' With a Purpose, we talk to Andrea Butler, a descendant of the Fulani tribe, Gettysburg-obsessed Marine Corps brat, and lover of all things magazine-related.  Andréa Butler is an entrepreneur - Editor-in-Chief and Publisher of Sesi, the only international teen magazine for Black girls. She's a writer and public speaker who reps hard for the culture, especially when it comes to Black teen girls. Prior to launching Sesi, Andréa worked as a high school English teacher, and after that, became a senior editor at LivingSocial. 

Her friends call her “Ms. Correcto,” because she is all about that editing life. Ms. Correcto is now in charge of what issues are published as she saw a need for Black teen girls to be better represented and sought out to do just that.
