Synopsis: Wall Street Wizards – Chronicling the history of African Americans on Wall Street and growth of African American Financial Strength and Economic Power.
Wall Street Wizards documentary focuses on the history and rise of African-Americans on Wall Street.
Wall Street Wizards will also chart the many African American historical “firsts” on Wall Street. We will also meet many of their current day contemporaries. Black Investment Bankers, Venture Capitalists and Money Mangers, and current day owners of Black publicly traded companies.
Our documentary will work its way up to a contemporary era when blacks have established a presence atop Wall Street and at the helm of investment firms guiding billions in assets yet still face disparities in wealth, income and opportunity.
