Create Yourself: Imagery. Intimacy. Innovation.
Black women and workplace challenges. A daughter's suicide attempt. Historical context. Career advocacy. The Civil Rights movement. Restorative frameworks. Dr. Clara Denise West provides a data driven, transparent and transformative blueprint as well as the opportunity to hear her perspectives from a personal and professional experience lens. About Dr. West: Dr. Clara Denise West is a systems engineer and author who applies rigorous analysis to decode institutional behavior and build protection frameworks. One of fewer than 3,000 Black women in U.S. history to earn a Ph.D. in Systems Engineering, she spent 27 years documenting systematic racism in federal STEM (NASA, U.S. Army) and testified before Congress, contributing to the No FEAR Act of 2002. After her daughter's suicide attempt following relentless school bullying, Dr. West applied the same systems engineering approach to peer dynamics and institutional failure, creating Koko and Friends™—a comprehensive K-12 restorative SEL system. Author of THE COLLISION: White Male Fragility Meets Black Female Resilience—Lessons Learned, Dr. West provides systems analysis of institutional power for Black women navigating hostile workspaces and restorative frameworks for children facing peer-driven harm. Same methodology. Different populations. One mission: protection when institutions fail.
