Abstract
The article emphasizes the need to address economic justice as articulated by Martin Luther King Jr., particularly in relation to the persistent racial wealth gap in the United States. Despite advancements in civil rights, data shows that the median wealth of white households is significantly higher than that of Black households, and African Americans receive a minimal percentage of venture-capital funding. The piece advocates for equitable systems that provide sustainable wealth-building opportunities, particularly through the support of historically Black colleges and universities (HBCUs) and access to technology and capital for underserved communities. It calls for collective action to fulfill King's vision of economic equality, highlighting the importance of inclusion in the current wave of innovation driven by artificial intelligence.
