CÎROC Launches #CirocStands Initiative
CÎROC and Sean “Diddy” Combs release the latest version of #CIROCStands for Black Excellence Month. Ciroc teamed up with the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) on Super Bowl weekend. They recognize influential Black and Brown women in sports journalism.
CÎROC held an intimate panel discussion for special guests and media to explore their inspiring stories and spirit as they celebrate their successes and journeys at NFL House. Such as New York Times bestselling author, Elaine Welteroth, along with journalists MJ Acosta-Ruiz, Cari Champion, and Kelsey Nicole Nelson.
“Black women have a special gift of storytelling that has added value and a unique perspective to the way sports stories are now told. Our panelists and moderators for #CIRCOStands, such as MJ Acosta-Ruiz, Cari Champion, and Kelsey Nicole Nelson, are proof of that success. We are especially proud to celebrate Black journalists during a Super Bowl that will be a history-making moment with two Black quarterbacks leading their teams.”
says NABJ President Dorothy Tucker.
CÎROC continues its commitment to celebrating Black excellence throughout the year through its community-focused platform #CIROCStands. The brand is amplifying the accomplishments, stories, and voices of Black businesses in cities like Chicago and New York. To highlight those who define culture and shape the future of each community.
