How did we get to $.66 to the dollar? Why are Black women overrepresented in certain job roles and underrepresented in others? What policies and societal norms have led to and upheld our current wage and wealth gaps? The Money History Collection aims to answer these questions and help put into context how we got to where we are today and what we can do to build a more equitable future. This collection sheds light on the historical, societal, and political events that impact Black women individually and collectively.

The Money History Collection explores key historical events and societal shifts that have shaped the financial landscape for Black women. It helps us better identify both the individual circumstances and broader systemic influences often overlooked in standard personal finance education. By connecting the dots across history, The Money History Collection helps you make sense of your financial behaviors and attitudes, leading to more informed decision-making that can shape your financial future.

With new-found insight into the policies and barriers at play, you'll be better able to define effective strategies for navigating today and building a better tomorrow. The Money History Collection empowers you to advocate for a better financial future. Whether it's through voting or investing, you'll be able to define how you want to influence the future of economic empowerment and equity.

The Money History Collection illuminates the historical, political, and social events that have impacted Black women's experiences with money, providing learners with a comprehensive understanding of their financial realities. For Black women seeking to navigate their financial journeys with confidence, clarity, and context, the collection offers the guidance and support needed to make informed, impactful decisions.
