YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAs the U.S. government continues to delay action on reparations, Earl Martin Phalen, CEO of Great Jobs KC, is taking the fight straight to the White House. Phalen and other community leaders recently met with lawmakers and top officials to demand economic justice, highlighting the staggering statistic that 97% of entrepreneurial investments go to white men—while Black, Latinx, and white women receive only 3%. In this eye-opening conversation, Phalen talks about his organization's mission to create family-sustaining wages for 50,000 people, and what it will take for the U.S. to finally address the financial harm caused by slavery and Jim Crow.
Great Jobs KC is a nonprofit focused on helping underemployed and unemployed adults in Kansas City move into sustainable, well-paying jobs.
