several dozen minority and women-owned businesses (MWBE) met in Harlem for a summit on how to close the inequity gap in the real estate industry.
Black and Brown economic leaders hoped to come up with the right path down the proverbial yellow brick road but hoped that others would travel with them on the journey. Something that Local Initiatives Support Corporation NYC President Denise Scott hopes will come soon.
The event, hosted by LISC NYC, looked to “put substance behind rhetoric: proposing solutions, public policy: best way to address the issue to help minority developers thrive. Those in attendance, including those who led the panel discussions, pointed out the maze Black and Black developers and entrepreneurs have to take for the crumbs left at the end of tunnel while the majority run away with the rest. But it wasn’t all doom and gloom.
