For generations, Black people have been told they have what is now said to be more than one trillion dollars of "buying power," reading Dr. Ball's work, we come to see that is a flat-out lie.
Dr. Jared Ball writes...."Black people are not poor for having missed out on previous opportunities, or by choosing today, out of some form of cultural deformity, or intractable financial illiteracy, to, as Jay-Z suggests, foolishly give away potential communal wealth by shopping. Jay-Z, like most commercial artists and art, reflects racial and class politics often masked by talent and performance. Season 4 of the Pageturners kicks off with a highly recommended and much need text "Myth and Propaganda of Black Buying Power".
This is a season of Pageturners, your host Elgin "Big EL" Bailey, you DO NOT WANT TO MISS!!!
May the pages we read, assist you in being the change we need.
