The hardest thing I had to do last week was explain to my sons why they are hated by certain people, and how their skin color will be weaponized against them.
We are seeing this rage manifest itself across the country as a result of the death of George Floyd and a pandemic that is afflicting black and brown people at a disproportionate rate.
It is to overcome this struggle that has driven me to dedicate my life to financial equality and justice for people of color.
I would also encourage you to support the following organizations that are focused on financial equality and justice:
Mortar, a nonprofit resource hub for urban entrepreneurs in Cincinnati that invests in people and solutions to make a difference in the community.
Urban League of Greater Southwestern Ohio, which offers programs, among other things on job training and development as well as African-American Business Development Program.
