Today's #MightyForum conversation on wealth building, #BlackEntrepreneurship, and equity with @FeleciaHatcher, @bradleyml & @BynaElliott was absolutely incredible. Here are a few takeaways I keep thinking about [🧵] Image
1. “Ownership is power”. @FeleciaHatcher made great points about the importance of estate and succession planning for Black families. We know from the data that intergenerational wealth transfer offers is one key way to grow and accelerate Black wealth.
2. When discussing stats that show only 40% of the $150B companies committed to advancing #racialequity post-George Floyd’s murder have been dispersed. @BynaElliott had a perfect response.

"40% is an F. If your kid came home with a 40 on a test that would be unacceptable."
3. I also found @bradleyml's wisdom on Black entrepreneurship to be really insightful. Tips like “preparation and readiness is key when presenting your business for venture capital funding” will really help more Black-owned businesses scale up and grow beyond the startup phase.
4. Data gathering, like what @blackwealthdata Center does, is one of the first tangible next steps we can take to advance racial wealth equity. Data-informed investment decisions combined w/ community initiatives make a massive difference in supporting Black entrepreneurs.
Thanks to everyone who came by to check out the @blackwealthdata Center's Racial Wealth Equity Database at #MightyDreamForum's @blackambitionpz! Image
