Join us for a discussion with activists, city planners and policymakers who each play a role in generating more economic opportunities and infrastructure within the Black community. In this talk we will discuss the importance of Black spaces and communities when generating wealth in Los Angeles and the United States. We will also discuss why Black-owned businesses have important implications in city and equity planning.
