Sharon Middleton McGhee works for the airport authority in Charleston, and she’s the first African American woman and the first African American director there. She knows that, for people of color, it can be hard to get financing for their business, and she’s out to change that. From her training and years in human resources, Sharon knows it’s all about the relationships you build, from getting a job to getting a loan. Sharon also has some opinions about the removal of the Calhoun statue from Charleston’s Marion Square. Turns out, Sharon’s probably a descendent of the former vice president and slavery apologist.
