WHAT: Is available by phone or in-studio to discuss the 2000

are
roughly equal to that of African Americans, which The

broad implications for politics and culture at the
beginning of the millennium."

education, good jobs, homeownership,
entrepreneurship and wealth creation. In addition,
Price can address the increased need for African
Americans to coalesce to increase their clout and
use their political leverage.
WHEN: Price is available on an as-needed basis.
