WOMEN ROCK WINGS - Meagan Davis, Black Women in Aviation, Storytelling Through New Media
Meagan Davis @womenrockwings is a Captain in the Air Force Reserve Chaplain Corps and a new private pilot. She comes from Brooklyn, Southern, and Bajan roots (her father was from Barbados—where I spent two years of my Coast Guard career). She is the founder of Women Rock Wings—an initiative to inspire and connect women in aviation, and to virtually connect women-in-training in study groups to capitalize on the collective knowledge and experience of women learning to fly. She’s been on social media recently, connecting several different initiatives, and, in particular, highlighting Black women in aviation who are making their history right now. In this interview, Meagan and I talk about how storytelling in new media compliments the tradition of books as a medium for inspiring the future of aviation. And she’s giving away a headset this month!
