In commemoration of Black Business Month, Jevertus Burnett joins Marjy Marj on the Humanity Chats Podcast to explore the concept of wealth, business, and philanthropy in today's society. Jevertus articulates an important point: while there may be technical differences in how wealth is categorized, fundamentally, Black wealth is no different from the wealth of any other racial or ethnic group. However, history tells a different story, one where people of color, particularly African Americans, have faced systemic barriers to wealth-building opportunities. This term "Black wealth" serves as a definition - encouraging Black individuals to engage in meaningful discussions about their financial futures and take ownership of their economic destinies.Furthermore, it's refreshing to recognize that, contrary to popular beliefs, the Black community currently has access to more resources than ever before. With rising earnings and job opportunities, it's essential for the community to play an active role in conversations surrounding wealth. By coming together to share knowledge, Black People can foster generational wealth and ownership that transcends individual effort. As we celebrate Black Business Month, this occasion is integral to the broader conversation about empowerment and representation in business. According to Jevertus Black Business Month is more than just a commemoration; it's an ideal opportunity to highlight the diversity of Black-owned businesses, many of which continue to be under-appreciated. His experiences in financial services reveal the surprise many Black entrepreneurs feel upon discovering the wealth of reputable Black-owned companies across various sectors. This realization exemplifies a key element of Black Business Month—it gives a voice to stories often overlooked and showcases the products and services emerging from the Black community.By elevating these businesses, we not only celebrate their accomplishments but also foster a culture of collaboration and support. In today's world, where representation is crucial, Black Business Month empowers consumers to intentionally seek out and uplift Black-owned businesses, nurturing a strong sense of community and solidarity. This initiative also opens the dialogue for Black philanthropy, encouraging individuals to utilize their resources strategically to uplift their communities. Ultimately, Black Business Month is not merely an observance but a call to recognize and actively support Black entrepreneurs, transforming the landscape into a powerful movement for economic empowerment and social change.About JevertusJevertus Burnett is a Senior Internal Consultant at New York Life Insurance Company, where he focuses on individual disability and long-term care planning. With strong skills in communication, public speaking, and education, he is dedicated to helping top financial professionals create robust financial strategies that encompass vital insurance options for their clients.

Celebrated author of the award-winning book, The Color of Money: Black Banks and the Racial Wealth Gap, Mehrsa Baradaran states that when the Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1863, Blacks had 0.5% of the nation's wealth. This statistic makes sense, since Blacks weren't allowed to own capital as enslaved people — their bodies were, indeed, the capital used to develop lending in this country. Fast-forward more than 160 years to today, Black households currently have a total wealth of just over 4% - not much growth, especially when U consider that one-in-four Black households overall have no wealth or in debt, compared to about one-in-ten U.S. households.    What if our nation's financial systems were rigged — not by evil puppet masters or villains — but by law-abiding judges, lawyers, policy makers and lobbyists? In Baradaran's latest book, The Quiet Coup: Neoliberalism and The Looting of America, the acclaimed professor of law at the University of California, Irvine argues that our political and economic systems of government have shifted in recent decades to yield more complex laws and regulations designed to benefit the rich and powerful—while at the same time, proclaiming smaller government and less regulation. The result has been a large section of Americans left poor and disenfranchised. Join us as I SEE U host Eddie Robinson chats with one of our country's leading intellectuals and legal scholars, Mehrsa Baradaran. We examine how the Civil Rights movement and the push for economic justice by Black activists led to a so-called neoliberal movement. Baradaran explores this ideology of neoliberalism and explains how it infected our politics to ensure and maintain a dominant system of economic power over democracy – a movement she says is far from over, and even accelerating.
