About From Burning To Blueprint: Rebuilding Black Wall
Product Description From Burning to Blueprint tells the story of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre in the era of the Black Lives Matter movement and social activism. As the title suggests, it is more than a historical account of what happened a century ago, this book provides a path for Black families to rebuild Black Wall Street in the 21st century. This book builds on decades of research into Tulsa's Race Massacre and weaves the past and the present together to reveal how the formula used to spark one of the worst race massacres in American history, is still being used today. Review "I thoroughly enjoyed reading From Burning to Blueprint: Rebuilding Black Wall Street After a Century of Silence. Matthews masterfully blends the history of Tulsa's once prominent Black Wall Street business district with current day reality, while also providing lessons in personal financial management and investing. I intend to use his recommendations both personally and professionally. Its educational value will yield a great return for any reader." -- Rose M. Washington, Former Chair of the Kansas City Federal Reserve CEO, Tulsa Economic Development Corporation "From Burning to Blueprint: Rebuilding Black Wall Street After a Century of Silence eloquently lays out the historical significance of an event that has largely been omitted from history books and classrooms in America for decades. Kevin has not only taken up the laborious task of meticulously documenting the twenty-four hours between May 31 and June 1, 1921, he has also provided a detailed plan for a path forward to rebuild and create generational wealth. This event has resounding historical effects that are still being felt by Black people in America today. The important work laid out in this book should not be missed." -- Carmen Perez, Creator of Make Real Cents and Financial Literacy Advocate "The ability to take very complex financial concepts and make them simple and accessible is amazing. Don't miss Kevin's fresh take on how to build wealth through savings, investing and protecting (SIP). SIP works whether you have $50,000, $500,000 or $1,000,000 to invest!" -- Eric Stevenson, President of Retirement Plans at Nationwide Financial "Kevin Matthews has issued a clarion call to action. I encourage you to read this book!" --Tom Bennett, Jr. PhD, Chairman of the Board, First Oklahoma Bank "Kevin's eye opening book dives into the history well, yet really shines by painting a strong path forward on ways we can make a lasting impact investing back into Black communities - something essential to close the wealth gap with Black Americans. This text speaks to the mission we are building at First Boulevard" -Donald Hawkins, President & CEO + Asya Bradley, COO of First Boulevard About the Author Kevin L.
