Get The Scoop On How Blacks In Chicago and Increasing Other Cities Can Change Our Zero Net Worth Dilemmas
By Pierre Clark The talk in Chicago about increasing economic opportunity for African-Americans in Chicago and around the country rings hollow in the face of a report from the Chicago Community Trust that Black families in Chicago have a median net worth of $0 dollars while white families in contrast have a median net worth of $210,000.

What can be done now and in the immediate future about addressing and reversing these depressing findings?
