This week on AMERICA IN BLACK, CBS News Correspondent Vlad Duthiers sits down with Eddie C. Brown and John Rogers to discuss their goals to leave a path to long term wealth for Black americans. #BET #AmericaInBlackBET #BlackWealth

Why is this only 10 mins? Can we make these types of important BIOs longer? Just a thought. Thanks for posting this.

Its positive for him.but its not impacting his generation or the x generation of black men.Because they always been unfortunately risk adversed.And thats why poverty networth is a serious problem widespread amongest them.They just didnt believed in the stockmarket investing.I never heard anybody in my family speak about it or in my neighborhood.But being a outlier i always been curious about it so i pursued early on.
We need a movie on these two.

The rich holler and the wealthy whisper.
"Stay on the path and make footprints for others to follow." Wow❤
Thanks for highlighting these two pioneers. We black people need to see that we can be successful outside of sports and acting or music. I hope this story inspires a new generation of black financial entrepreneurs, and hopefully they look particularly at Mr Brown's example. He married a black woman, and in so doing, is keeping the wealth in the black community.👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Why isn't this being broadcasted to larger audiences
Well done BET Network! This is exactly what this channel should he producing!

You know how old this story? Blacks of his generation even my generation are risk aversed.And thats why they never really believed to invest in the stockmark or wealth in it.
I don’t think Ive watched any BET content in two decades. Well done piece! You should really think about releasing an extended version, surely there’s more.

I have not watched BET in YEARS. If this is the type of programming on I need to take a second look. Great content.
Great story. This is what we need more of
Black is beautiful ❤
OMG I'm surprised but happy with BET. When did they air this at 3:00 am?
Inspirational. A true testament of will power and destiny. One man from privilege, another from humble beginnings. “Every man is trying to live up to something or make up for mistakes”
Great Great Interview!!
They skated around the Tulsa Okahome part....😢😢
Thank you for this, sending to all my friends & fam. I just wish these 2 gentlemen were as well known as Diddy & Sexy Red.
Congratulations brothers ❤
Absolutely beautiful, these men get it! I was so happy to hear a great report from the community that has been defying stereotypes and quietly moving forward, black Americans. See all we can be! Very, very good stuff, educating the children build schools and actually teaching! I hope more billionaires will follow these men’s excellent example. To many millionaires get their blessings and do not understand what has been given to them and why.

Thank you for the inspiration
Watching this made me feel inspired and nostalgic of what BET TV used to be. Lets keep stories like this a focus. 💯
Both gentlemen seem able to affect positive changes in their communities. I hope for continued success for both of them and their companies, and that they continue to inspire many.
Excellent episode. Thank you
Good job
this is very inspiring !!
This is good stuff right here, but I don’t understand why we have to single ourselves out.. Why say “Black Wealth”??? Why not just say “Growing Wealth” and let the thumbnail speak for it self. There’s already 3 well dressed black man on it.
My husband and I have invested in Ariel mutual funds since 1994. We are now retired. We still have an automatic investment into Ariel mutual fund every month. Our son has had an Ariel fund since 2018 with monthly automatic contributions.
Great vid
❤ this is awesome. More like this please.
Great video!
Awesome 👌🏾
This is an inspiring story, thanks for sharing!
Stay on the path and make footprints 👣 ❤
My parents taught me I can be whatever I want in this world! This video needs to be sent to the woke black people who cry that the white man is holding them back! So they can stop embarrassing those of Us black Americans who growing and building!
Amazing story!!
Great Episode

Yes, yes, yes. I don’t even watch BET now because of the low level programming. If they show more progressive positive videos I will definitely watch again. Our community needs more of this. Thanks for airing this video!

I watched a documentary about the Greenwood Race Massacre a few years ago. It was tragic. I hope to see communities like Greenwood rise up from those ashes, all across the U.S. Everyone excelling will only make this country strong.
So inspired by this program. Exceptionally done. Thank you. I remain hopeful, and am provoked to do more and build legacy in our firm.
That's what I was trying to do for the black community. We need help in education in our community about growing and accumulated wealth and not living paycheck to paycheck.
And unknown heroes!!!
GReat idea to teach investing to high schoolers.
These two men could walk through the black community and not a soul would recognize them. Let Sexy Redd, Cardi B, Megan the Stallion walk through and everyone would recognize them. Priorities! It speaks for itself.
I have a gold mine. I'd love to have a Black backer. For a percentage of each sold copy. Love my Black people!
The core of engineers are taught how to continue thorough breeds
BET needs to highlight Armstead and Maggie Lena Walker, Reginald Lewis, John Rogers, Eddie Brown, Sheila Johnson!!!
This is the material I want to see on BET, take off the Ms. Pat show.

May I invest?

I haven’t heard a single Fortune 500 CEO or new tech founder be called a “tycoon” in the last 5 years…. The irony just writes itself
Thanks for sharing these stories. BET has so much potential but the potential gets lost in meaningless TV shows and the same movies that have been aired time after time. It kind of saddens me.
