This book was released on 2014-05-05 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Did you know that African Americans in Oklahoma created a 'Negro Wall Street' in the early 1910s? The Oklahoma city of Tulsa in 1921 had a Black hospital, a Black public library, 2 Black public schools, 2 Black newspapers, 2 Black theatres, 5 hotels, 13 churches, 30 restaurants and perhaps 600 Black businesses! What was the story of this great Black achievement? What happened to all of this? In the first half of this book, Robin Walker addresses these questions. What does it take for an individual to replicate the kind of economic success that the people of Black Wall Street achieved? In the second part of this book, Robin Walker presents his own ideas on what it takes to become successful. He outlines The Seven Key Empowerment Principles that any individual needs to use as a minimum to replicate that kind of success. He shows that individuals need five things to make it in the money game. They need Inspiration, Correct Knowledge, a Money Management System, a Personal Plan, and the Seven Key Empowerment Principles. Inspiration gives individuals 'the WHY.' Correct Knowledge gives individuals 'the TARGET.' A Money Management System and the Personal Plan gives people 'the HOW.' Finally, The Seven Key Empowerment Principles is 'the CEMENT' that holds 'the WHY, ' 'the HOW' and 'the TARGET' together.

Download or read book Black To The Future written by LaRachelle Samuel-Smith and published by Page Publishing. This book was released on 2024-09-10 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Whether the term Black Wall Street is familiar to you or not, this new e-book, Black to the Future: Lessons from Black Wall Street for Community and Economic Prosperity, will provide fresh insights into this community. Those insights include key takeaways for the present day. In it, we will explore in detail how specific Black business pioneers and neighborhood residents created a sustainable model for community growth and empowerment. "Go West!" may not be a refrain that you associate with the Black migration experience in the post-Civil War era. However, that is what many Black Americans did. In fact, it was during this time that several Black towns popped up across the West, including Greenwood, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Home to numerous thriving businesses, education, and health facilities, Greenwood became known as Black Wall Street. This was due to the community's wealth and self-sufficiency. But how did these individuals, who were only decades removed from slavery, accomplish such a feat? And what can those who care about strengthening communities learn from their example? This work aims to demonstrate how we can gain insight into the present and beyond by looking toward the past.
Download or read book A Better Black Wall Street written by Raheem Muhammad and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2024-09-18 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Better Black Wall Street is a book that focuses on a movement aiming to create a robust economic system for Black Americans and those in need. The book delves into the world of Business Transparency, emphasizing Trust, Integrity, Openness, and more. Leveraging technology, communication, and AI, the goal is to foster unity through interviews, discussions, storytelling, and the reinvention of true brotherhood and sisterhood to maintain a strong sense of community. Learning from the past, we create a protective shield around us, keeping our memories fresh about the hindrances others have placed in our path to success, including those we have imposed on ourselves. To truly understand the necessity of this movement, one must reflect on the historical challenges and systemic barriers that Black Americans have encountered in their pursuit of economic success. This movement seeks to empower individuals by instilling a sense of self-worth and pride, encouraging entrepreneurship and innovation in the face of adversity. Through collaboration and shared experiences, we aim to build a supportive network that uplifts and celebrates the achievements of the Black community, paving the way for a brighter and more equitable future for all.
