the history of black wealth
Docu-Series in pre-development
A genre-defying, in-depth look at the untold stories of 19th-century Black American pioneers who lived in opulence, defied expectations, and reimagined the cultural landscape as they built power, wealth, and influence in a rapidly changing society. Through an intimate lens, we uncover a history of resilience and triumph, delving into the complexities of race, society, power, and wealth while challenging the standard struggle-rooted narratives of Black culture during this period. This project seeks to reshape how history is understood and inspire future generations.
