What startup communities can learn from the Black Wall Street | Anthony Frasier | TEDxBarnardCollege
What do Silicon Valley and Tulsa, Oklahoma have in common? More than you could ever imagine. Over the past one hundred years both have been home to entrepreneurial multi-millionaires. And though comparatively fewer have heard about The Greenwood District in Tulsa, otherwise known as “Black Wall Street;” Anthony Frasier showcases how the fabric of this once vibrant ecosystem laid the groundwork for innovation and growth all over the United States. Inspired by his predecessors in Oklahoma, Frasier’s TEDx weaves a story of a determined entrepreneur from Tulsa to Newark, who would eventually co-found The Phat Startup and breathe new life into a U.S. community.
"Anthony Frasier is the co-Founder of The Phat Startup, a media company that produces resources for entrepreneurs.
His work has been featured on CNN Money, Forbes, Black Enterprise, and Black In America. Frasier was also named an innovator by AT&T which led to a spot that aired to millions weekly and was praised by The Washington Post. A serial entrepreneur, Frasier founded the startup Playd and award-winning gaming site, The Koalition. Frasier is actively involved in Newark, NJ, helping aspiring entrepreneurs. His initiatives have been recognized by the Business Outreach Center and he was granted the Award for Community Impact in 2012."

time to rebuild black wall street in black communities all cross the country, fuck anyone who has a problem with it. let start by learning to treat each other right.
I enjoyed this! Black Wall Street was just years ahead of it's time of bringing the empowerment of the Black community in Tulsa, OK. Very heartbreaking that the town was destroyed in a race riot, but I applaud Anthony Frasier and other people in Newark, NJ for making a difference. I liked him in "CNN's Black In America: The Promised Land Of Silicon Valley" and I applaud his work for what's he's doing.
It took me 20 minutes to watch this 12 minute video. I had to keep rewinding it back because Anthony was dropping so many gems. I'm proud to know this man.
