If Jay, Diddy and whoever else wants to help, how about some initiatives that are gonna help people, ALL BLACK PEOPLE, build equity. The odds are already stacked, we need help!

Create initiatives to teach financial literacy, rebuilding credit, applying for loans, real estate, stocks, building businesses. You want us to play the game but you just saying it. Help. Us. Nigga.pic.twitter.com/3ekOA2a5zc
