Our contribution offered an understanding that these communities have never lacked in social capital or their capacity to overcome underwhelming wages or recalcitrant elected officials. Extending them real partnership and control of the resources in their community might go a long way towards addressing the historical market failure to provision services.</p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><em>"For the past couple months, several City Bureau Summer 2018 fellows have been looking at Black generational wealth in Chicago and the discriminatory policies (past and present) that stifle its growth. They have sought to answer the question: What is Black wealth? Through their reporting they’ve explored the cultural wealth of Chicago’s rich Black arts scene, the financial models created by Chicago’s Black businesses and more. This week at the Public Newsroom reporters Erisa Apantaku, Arabella Breck, Olivia Cunningham and Tonia Hill will continue the conversation with panelists who can speak on the different interpretations of Black generational wealth from both a historic lens and into Chicago’s future."</em></p> </div></div></div><div id="" class="x-container max width" style="margin: 0px auto;padding: 0px;" ><div class="x-column x-sm x-1-1" style="padding: 0px;" ><div class="x-text x-content e67-e35 m1v-0 m1v-1"><a class="spreaker-player" href="https://www.spreaker.com/user/citybureau/public-newsroom-78-how-do-we-define-blac" data-resource="episode_id=15713355" data-theme="light" data-autoplay="false" data-playlist="false" data-cover="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/images.spreaker.com/original/60ca6952bbf467f9d3b697d21d6fc10a.jpg" data-width="100%" data-height="400px">Listen to "Public Newsroom 78: How Do We Define Black Wealth in Chicago?" on Spreaker.</a><script async src="https://widget.spreaker.com/widgets.js"></script></div><div class="x-text x-content e67-e36 m1v-0 m1v-1"><a class="spreaker-player" href="https://www.spreaker.com/user/citybureau/public-newsroom-78-how-can-we-define-bla" data-resource="episode_id=15713559" data-theme="light" data-autoplay="false" data-playlist="false" data-cover="https://d3wo5wojvuv7l.cloudfront.net/images.spreaker.com/original/60ca6952bbf467f9d3b697d21d6fc10a.jpg" data-width="100%" data-height="400px">Listen to "Public Newsroom 78: How Can We Define Black Wealth in Chicago?
