What does it mean to navigate the world of investing and options trading while Black? In this bold and unapologetic episode of Politics & Prose, host Gail Dudley sits down with Ells Williams to unpack the realities, challenges, and opportunities that come with building wealth in Black and brown communities.
We’re going beyond the buzzwords—talking about how systemic barriers have shaped financial access, why investing isn’t just for Wall Street, and how options trading can be a powerful tool for economic liberation. Plus, we’re diving into how we can plant seeds of financial literacy in the next generation, teaching our kids not just how to save but how to grow their money fearlessly.
If you’re ready to break cycles, challenge the status quo, and reclaim your financial power, this episode is for you.
Key Takeaways:
- The role of investing and trading in dismantling economic inequities
- Practical strategies for getting started with options trading
- How to make financial literacy relatable for young children
- Why wealth-building is a form of activism in marginalized communities
Listen, learn, and share—because trading while Black isn’t just possible; it’s powerful.
