We're excited to bring you this episode as part of The Intersection Rewind: 10 Powerful Conversations that Still Resonate. This series features 10 of our most downloaded and favorite conversations from the last five years. .The wealth gap in America continues to widen, with systemic inequities disproportionately affecting communities of color. According to research, Black households hold just 12 cents for every dollar of white household wealth, while Latinx families hold only 21 cents for each dollar.This economic inequality isn't accidental—it stems from decades of discriminatory policies, unequal access to capital, and systemic barriers to financial opportunity that persist today.In this powerful conversation with Myah Irick, we dive deep into the root causes of economic disparity, examining how financial exclusion, lending discrimination, and limited access to capital have created generational wealth gaps across racial lines.Our discussion explores practical solutions including innovative financial programs, community investment initiatives, and policy changes that can create pathways to economic mobility for underserved communities.After listening, consider how you might contribute to creating more equitable financial systems in your own community.Resources:Connect with Myah on LinkedInConnect with me:InstagramLinkedInRestart Consulting
