The Kamala Harris ‘Opportunity Agenda for Black Men’ Might Be Good Politics, But History Reveals It Has Flaws

Throughout her presidential campaign, Vice President Kamala Harris has presented voters with her vision for an “Opportunity Economy” to create jobs and expand the middle class. On Oct. 14, she announced a new element of this agenda: a set of economic proposals aimed specifically at African-American men. [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] Her “Opportunity Agenda for Black Men” intends to unleash the “untapped ambition” of African-American men by “removing historic barriers to wealth creation” and providing the “tools to achieve financial freedom.” The program’s specific policy proposals, which Harris has been highlighting in the last weeks of the presidential race, include extending loans to Black entrepreneurs, creating training and mentorship programs for jobs in “high-demand” fields, and supporting Black investment in cryptocurrencies and the cannabis industry.
