"Financial Literacy in the Black Community" by Rachel Christian with Annuity.org.
- "Closing the racial wealth gap isn’t a simple fix. But many experts say education and financial literacy can help. In this article, we identify the impact this knowledge gap has on the African American community — and explore how Black educators and financial advisors are working to close it."
- "Police Brutality Center exists to bring awareness to the growing epidemic of police brutality, racial profiling, and excessive force. If we can help save one more life or avoid the severe injury of one more innocent person, our mission will be successful. We believe that the tools and content provided within policebrutalitycenter.org can support those who have experienced trauma at the hands of police and prevent future interactions from turning violent or deadly."
