Prior to her DEI work, Jamiah held digital, communications, and campaign leadership roles at MoveOn.org, NextGen America, the Democratic National Committee, and the NAACP. She is most proud of her effort in leading the communications strategy for a 1,000-mile march for justice and the civil rights website she helped to develop for the 50th anniversary of the March on Washington.
