For the first workshop in the History and Legacy of Black Entrepreneurship in the United States series for the spring 2023 semester, Dr. LaTanya White will draw from her research on Black entrepreneurship and the racial wealth gap being perpetuated through intergenerational transfer of wealth in American business families. By definition, a family reaches dynastic status once they have maintained control of either their entrepreneurial wealth or business assets for three consecutive generations. As a result of systemic oppression and structural racism, there are very few Black business families that have reached dynastic status despite having the highest recorded levels of legacy motivation. Dr. White will share comparative insights from the published praxis of Black business dynasties and the emerging evidence-based construct of Dynastic Wealth.
Join the conversation as we bring together scholars and academics from institutions around the country to share out their research in a discussion-based forum. By studying the history of Black entrepreneurship and innovation, we can gain an understanding of the creative strategies these entrepreneurs employed to succeed.
