In celebration of Women's History Month, Here and Now pays tribute to one of the most influential Black journalists of our time.

Susan L. Taylor, the former Editor-in-Chief of Essence Magazine, sits down with anchor Sandra Bookman on this special half-hour edition of Here and Now.

Taylor not only helped empower Black women over the years, she also helped shape Black culture, becoming a driving force in the beauty industry and beyond.

Her passion for philanthropy led her to create the National Cares Mentoring Movement to focus on healing trauma in children. This year, Taylor is celebrating her 80th birthday and the 20th anniversary of her organization.
