Uncover the untold legacy of Marcus Garvey with our special guest, Dr. Julius Garvey, son of the iconic leader. Dr. Garvey sheds light on his father's extraordinary journey from Jamaica to becoming a beacon of Black empowerment across the globe. Through personal anecdotes and historical insights, we explore how pivotal events and figures like the Berlin Conference and Booker T. Washington shaped Marcus Garvey's vision, and how this legacy continues to inspire global Black communities today.Dr. Garvey shares the compelling story of his father's politically charged trial, orchestrated by the FBI to tarnish and criminalize his revolutionary efforts. We dismantle the myths around Garvey, revealing the truth behind the accusations and the ongoing fight to restore his reputation. By drawing parallels with figures like Martin Luther King and Malcolm X, we underscore the persistent struggle against systemic oppression and the urgent need for historical justice and equality.The episode also broadens its focus to the influence of Black booksellers as cultural bastions, the ideological dynamics between Garvey's organization and the NAACP, and the entrepreneurial spirit that fuels the Garvey legacy. Through contributions from cultural nationalists and legal experts, we revisit the powerful messages of unity and empowerment that Marcus Garvey championed. Dr. Garvey's personal stories and reflections offer a rich narrative on how historical legacies continue to shape modern entrepreneurial journeys and community leadership.Support the showhttps://www.patreon.com/c/EA_BookClub

From culture shock to capital gains, your brand could be the key to unlocking major opportunities or keeping you stuck in the hustle. In this masterclass episode Part 2 with branding expert Evante Daniels, we break down the branding science Black businesses need to succeed!We dive deep into:Why your brand name can be the difference between getting funded or forgottenThe two ways to create demand (and why most fail)How to position your brand for growth without losing cultural authenticityThe branding mistakes that cost Black businesses capital and credibilityThe power of strategic naming, perception, and Cultural IP in breaking business barriersThink about how Beyoncé built an empire, how Nike's branding made them legendary, and how companies like Apple and Adidas have mastered the art of brand perception. These aren't just names—they're strategic assets rooted in Cultural IP, market psychology, and identity positioning that drive influence and revenue.If you want to elevate your brand beyond the culture and into boardrooms, bank accounts, and billion-dollar opportunities, this episode is for you. Too often, Black entrepreneurs brand based on passion rather than positioning. But your brand must speak the language of capital if you want to break barriers and build generational wealth.

On this episode of Florida Matters, you'll hear about an effort to connect people with Black businesses throughout Tampa Bay. Among the flurry of executive orders President Trump signed in his first days back in the oval office: rolling back Diversity, Equity and Inclusion initiatives in the federal government. It's a tactic Floridians are familiar with. Governor Ron DeSantis waged a ‘war on woke' over the past couple of years, targeting DEI efforts in schools and workplaces. But now big businesses are scaling back their DEI programs. That has prompted a backlash against those businesses. The battle over DEI and the ripple effects on shoppers and businesses comes as Black History Month gets underway. Nicole Payne, President of the Hillsborough County Black Chamber of Commerce, joined Florida Matters to explain how her organization works to strengthen Black-owned businesses in the region, and some of the hurdles they face. And Hillary Van Dyke talks about working to connect people with Black-owned businesses with the online directory she co-founded: the Green Book of Tampa Bay.

What does it take to run a thriving business in Washington? Lately, for a number of business owners around the Sound , the answer seems to be “too much.” January has seen the closure of a number of long time Black owned businesses in the Seattle area – including Jackson’s Catfish Corner and Flowers Just-4-U in Seattle’s Central District, Plum Bistro in Capitol Hill, La Familia in Des Moines, and Nate Jackson’s Super Funny Comedy Club in Tacoma. When faced with a rising number of Black-owned businesses saying “we can’t do this anymore” Converge Media didn’t just stand by. They launched a campaign to turn things around. This month, the local media organization announced a push to support Black businesses across the Sound. Converge Media's Besa Gordan tells us about the effort and the struggles she's hearing from Black business owners.

Bryant shares his inspiring journey from the streets of Crenshaw to creating a $110 million real estate portfolio, offering listeners invaluable insights on mindset, wealth-building, and the importance of black-owned businesses. Whether you're looking to break barriers or build generational wealth, this episode will equip you with the tools and motivation to achieve your dreams. A must-listen for aspiring entrepreneurs and change-makers! In 1992, in the wake of the L.A. riots, Bryant founded Operation Hope, a nonprofit that provides financial literacy and economic empowerment at the community level. Today, it provides no-cost financial counseling and coaching in 300 offices serving more than 1,000 locations, and is the only nonprofit allowed by federal regulators inside bank branches, with much of its programming funded through the private sector. In 2020, it also launched an initiative alongside Shopify to provide Black entrepreneurs with the tools to build a business; the goal is to create one million Black businesses by 2030. “It could be that financial freedom is the only real freedom,” says Bryant, now 57. “Every other freedom can be taken away.” #SHMS #BEST #STRAWSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
