Race, Privilege, and a Mission to Close the Wealth Gap: Johnathan Holifield and Christopher Gergen Share Their Stories
Manage episode 449585155 series 3395301
Christopher Gergen and Johnathan Holifield come from completely different backgrounds. One was born into power and privilege in a political family in DC. One grew up in the industrial, blue-collar Detroit area where hard work was the norm. Through their careers and personal growth, they've ended up with the same goals - to raise awareness and promote action to strengthen our nation’s economic inclusion, competitiveness, and prosperity - and ultimately move the needle in closing the generational wealth gap in the United States.
Moving the Needle is hosted by Christopher Gergen & Johnathan Holifield, and is produced by Earfluence.
