According to the National Equity Atlas, workers of color are disproportionately affected by economic inequality. They tend to be concentrated in low-wage jobs with little opportunity for economic security or upward mobility.

On this episode of City Limits Winds of Change, Joe Lee looks at local efforts to address wealth inequality by creating, sustaining, and growing black entrepreneurs as a way of promoting generational wealth.
