Conscious Investing & Social Change w/ Jeremiah Robinson - Part 2

The Mindful Marketplace with Joel Skene

Ever thought about investing in people to change our world? In a captivating conversation with Jeremiah Robinson, an ardent advocate for marginalized entrepreneurs, we delve into this very concept on the Mindful Marketplace. Jeremiah, who is an entrepreneur himself and a member of Neighborhood Economics, unfolds the work he does with Mountain Bizworks and the CDFI in empowering individuals with limited resources to kick-start their own ventures. More importantly, we shine a light on the disparities that black-owned businesses face and Jeremiah's vision for a world where these entrepreneurs not only survive but thrive.
Switching gears to local business empowerment, we dig deep into the profound impact of investing in marginalized communities. Initiatives like the Star West in San Antonio and the American Indians of Texas are leading the charge in fostering entrepreneurship within low-income communities. And guess what? Western North Carolina is gaining momentum too with efforts like the Catalyst Fund. Wrapping up our discussion, we reflect on our first video experiment, inviting you to join us on this journey on BizRadio.US. By investing in each other, we can create a just economy. So, tune in and discover how your investment can become a catalyst for change!
