  1. Saw you today, Mr. Bryant, on Politics Nation with Rev Al and was impressed to hear about your new book Financial Literacy for all. As i checked you out after the show and learned you grew up in LA, where i also grew up, but now live near palm springs, your mission meshes my life’s hope for equality for everyone, especially women…. i came to age in the 60’s and have fought my whole life for the ERA and Title 9 and my equality in the workplace. i look forward to ckg out your new book and what your non-profit does. inspired me i must say…

  2. Looks like an awesome book of finical literacy for all. I will share the book with our new alderman Mark Chambers jr. of district 2 of Milwaukee, Wis. Mark graduated from Concordia University , Mequon Wis. With finical literacy. Concordia University has accepted moving Wisconsin Exonomics offices training teachers financial literacy to teach kids. Our previous alderman of district 2 is now the mayor of Milwaukee Mt. Cavalier Johnson interested supporting Milwaukee residents of 600,000 to advance to a million population of financial literacy and entrepreneurship. Perhaps a meeting or reaching out to them will create another opportunity for economic development. Mark Cbambers jr. Is reviewing the concept of starting a connection with other entrepreneurs and businesses to facilitate a sim city beta site of Sim City for district 2 digital development sharing opportunities and training for opportunities!
