"To fully understand the impact of generational wealth, we need only look at one telling statistic. Roughly one-third of Forbes 400 richest Americans inherited some or all their wealth. James Weeks addresses the life-altering impact of generational wealth in this important book. For African Americans, denied generational wealth by slavery, Jim Crowism, redlining, and institutionalized racism, this is a timely and critical issue."
