During the watching of the news in my local town of Memphis I listened to a story being told of a new survey concerning the wealth of Black Americans. The story went that many blacks have been blocked from achieving and attaining wealth by the Government of America. Now, to many that's no secret and even to me; also I'm well aware of it. It stated that the survey conveyed that black family's wealth is about 10 cents! Blacks have been blocked from every source of being given the same opportunities as whites. Thousands of Blacks do not have a saving account. They do not inherit and they are least in receiving the same help as whites when it comes to business loans, education assistant and properties such as housing lending. The cause and effect was gravely stated the government has not permited so many Blacks to exceed have the same opportunities in wealth. Is this really something new that Blacks have not discovered? For me it's the legend of Black Wealth in America. So revelent though we survive and race of Blacks will have it's time of wealth. This I believe --we are starting to take steps to improve overall our position of wealth. Eventually, without giving up. We shall get there.
