“You don’t even know the language of success as it pertains to economic justice. It’s a naughty word that black people have to use because they feel bad about how they’re getting treated wrong. It’s a truth in society as it pertains to people who don’t have the fullness of understanding linguistically or in practice of how to get what they need to succeed.

It’s not a black thing, it’s not a color thing. It’s a human thing, and it’s a lack of connection, education, and ownership thing. Period.”

— Tamaira “Miss Tee" Sandifer,CEO & Founder of Studio T Arts & Entertainment
