NBA Star Jaylen Brown wants to build Black Wall Street in Boston using a $300 million contract

Having signed a big contract with the Celtics, Jaylen Brown wants to give the Black community his fresh wealth. Brown revealed his desire to bring “Black Wall Street to Boston” and create generational wealth at a Wednesday press conference following signing a record-breaking five-year, $303.7 million contract with the Celtics.

“I want to launch a project to bring Black Wall Street here in Boston,” Brown told ESPN. “I want to аttаck the wealth disparity here.”

He believes analytics suggest stimulating the wealth gap could benefit the economy.

Brown hopes his initiative would “create new jobs, new resources, new businesses, new ideas,” in the Northeast, much like Black Wall Street, started in 1871 by affluent Black Tulsans.

Until the Tulsa Race Massaçade, when white supremacists tormented and devastated the community for two days, Greenwood/Black Wall Street prospered. There were hundreds of deaths and destruction of over 1,250 houses

.

“Boston could be a fully integrated self-sufficient hub,” Two-time NBA All-Star remarked. “I think Boston could be the pilot, not just for wealth disparity here in the US, but also for around the world.”

Brown has challenged institutional prejudice and altered the negative image of Black me𝚗 while helping his neighborhood.

Where Jaylen implements this concept, intrigues me. View his ESPN interview for additional background.
