Even with reparations, the Black wealth gap won’t vanish—it’s rooted in unjust systems. Loans, jobs, justice, equity, and relief are foundations, not luxuries. “15 cents on the dollar” is more than stats—it’s pain and history. Real change starts beneath the surface. Our voices and votes matter.

15 Cents on a Dollar isn’t just a book — it’s a feeling. These are real stories of people who built dreams despite a system built to break them. It’s about truth, hope, and honoring voices that matter. Learn, listen, share. Change starts when we keep the conversation alive. 🖤 #15CentsOnADollar

15 Cents on a Dollar” isn’t just about money—it’s about lives shaped by unfair systems that kept Black families from owning and thriving. It’s a call to face the truth, honor their strength, and keep the conversation going. Healing begins when we choose to listen and care. 💛

The New Deal, GI Bill, and redlining promised progress but shut out Black Americans. Homes, loans, and education were denied by design, leaving generational loss. Exclusion wasn’t accidental—it was policy. Remember, name it, and refuse to let it be erased. #EconomicJustice #BlackWealth

After the Civil War, Black families were promised land and opportunity but got nothing. No start, no access, no stability. That loss shaped generations and fuels the wealth gap today. Remember, share, and act on these unkept promises. #15CentsOnTheDollar #BlackWealth #EconomicJustice

Reading 15 Cents on the Dollar is painful yet affirming. It reveals how expropriation, exclusion, and exploitation shaped the Black wealth gap. These truths are heavy but healing our history, our families, our struggle. I’ll keep reflecting; this conversation matters. #15CentsOnTheDollar

15 cents on the dollar
That’s not just numbers, it’s the story of Black Americans facing land loss, exclusion, and exploitation across generations. Behind every cent is a family, a dream, a life cut short. This series reflects on that weight and calls us to share, remember, and act.

This weekend, I had the honor of presenting and participating at the Black Girls in Social Work Conference. Sharing on financial wellness while also learning, connecting, and practicing self-care was humbling and restorative. Grateful for growth, balance, and community.

#BlackGirls #beyondblackgirl

I am excited to announce that I will be a presenter at the second Black Girls in Social Work Conference in September. This will be my second time presenting to the conference because I love the space that was created in 2023 the encouraged me as a helper to pause and take care of myself.

In Atomic Habits, James Clear shows that lasting change comes from identity, not just goals. 🌱

Small, consistent actions + supportive systems = habits that stick.

True growth happens when habits align with values—making change authentic and sustainable. ✨

This reflection closes the Black Financial Wellness series, stressing that wealth is both personal and historical.

Michael Thomas Jr. highlights healing and systemic barriers, from slavery to denied GI Bill benefits, urging us to acknowledge history and redefine wealth through healing

Rethinking wealth: it’s more than what we own.

It’s how we manage it.

Wealth = stability, investing = growth.
Assets carry costs, net worth shows progress, and true financial wellness is shaped by our relationship with money, self, and others.

What’s your definition of wealth?
