About The Expert

Lawrence Phillips is a Diversity, Equity and Inclusion consultant and the founder of Green Book Global, a travel review platform dedicated to inspiring and empowering black travelers to confidently explore the world. It is akin to a Black “TripAdvisor” and is the first of its kind. It was formed when Lawrence embarked on a 30 country, 7-continent adventure around the world and noticed there was no consistent resource that could provide destination insights on racism. So, he built one. His review site is unique in that rather than rating activities, black travelers rate cities, and provide tips and scores relating to Adventure, Things To Do, History, etc. and what it is like Traveling While Black. He has now created a community of 100K+ followers on Instagram, has 5000+ travel experiences on the platform for over 400 destinations, and has a growing directory of Black Influencers/Creators to help promote the black travel perspective.

This webinar will be recorded and shared with with those who register. Registration is required.
