How exactly does the racial wealth gap impact Black entrepreneurship? In this episode of Voices In Equity, The Samuel Dubois Cook Center on Social Equity at Duke University tackles the intricate issue of the racial wealth gap and its implications for Black entrepreneurs. Join distinguished experts Mayor Leonardo Williams, Bertha Winbush, Kevin Dick, Victoria Samayoa, and William A. “Sandy” Darity, Jr., as we explore the systemic barriers like limited access to capital and networks that hinder black-owned businesses, and discuss how these challenges perpetuate economic disadvantages. But what strategies have provided support to Black-owned businesses? Highlighting local initiatives in Durham, North Carolina such as the Black Wall Street Homecoming and support programs from the Durham Business and Professional Chain and the Durham Chamber of Commerce, these experts expound on the importance of community and policy advocacy in promoting economic equity. Join us as we delve into strategies for overcoming these obstacles and fostering a more inclusive and prosperous business environment for Black entrepreneurs.
