Think about the wealth that could have been passed down to the generations of those who followed the successful black businesspeople in Tulsa. How that wealth, the connections to fellow successful people, the networking, the opportunities it could have created could have changed the lives of thousands. How it could have affected the self esteem of those families.How does that affect a black person’s ability to succeed today?
That is what you need to consider when thinking about how racism has suppressed the potential advancement of black people in the US. The ripple affect poverty has from one generation to the next.
