Explore the origins and development of America's most enduring Black institutions in this thought-provoking TEDx talk by D'Marquis Allen. Examine the subtle yet uncomfortable parallels between popular American success stories and those on the margins, questioning what their present and future imply about core American ideals. Delve into the potential consequences of a rapidly shifting socio-political landscape and consider the future of an America without these vital institutions. Drawing from his experience as a project manager, management consultant, and ordained Itinerant Deacon in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, Allen offers unique insights into building more sustainable, equitable, and innovative institutions. Gain a deeper understanding of the role Black institutions play in shaping American society and reflect on their importance in fostering justice, healing, and liberation for Black people.
