Why do some 3.5 million Black American families have zero or negative wealth? 💰

Jack "Calvin" Schermerhorn, Arizona State Professor of History and author of The Plunder of Black America will join Planet Wekeza to share his insights from "The Plunder of Black America: How The Racial Wealth Gap Was Made" ! 📚✨

Schermerhorn traces 400 years of Black dispossession and recapitalization
—what Frederick Douglass called plunder—through the stories of 8 Black families who fought to earn and keep their wealth against relentless systemic barriers. From 1619 to Tulsa to the subprime lending crisis, this history is key to understanding today’s racial wealth gap.
