Join us for a conversation on the Wealth Gap!

Tuesday, July 21st @ 1pm

Location: 118 E Utica St, Buffalo, NY 14209

💰Despite sustained economic growth and decades of policy activity, significant disparities in wealth, health, education, housing, and life expectancy persist across the United States—most acutely among African Americans. These disparities are not isolated outcomes but the cumulative result of historical labor exploitation, exclusionary policies, and institutional practices whose effects compound across generations. Current policy approaches remain fragmented and insufficiently scaled to address the interconnected nature of these challenges. Without intentional, coordinated action, these disparities pose long-term economic, social, and civic risks.


💱The Wealth Gap presentation goes back in history to explain how African Americans got to where we are today financially and then reviews the resulting disparities we live with today. We then offer solutions to overcome these realities
