• 0:57
  Speaker 1: Are you relocated?
• 0:59
  Speaker 3: Actually no, not in an Atlanta natives. I was born
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: in Jackson, Alabama and raised in Indian Ridge. It's about
• 1:05
  Speaker 3: an hour above Mobile, Alabama.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Now Jackson, Alabama. Now you know I'm from a big city, Okay,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: So I have a different point of view versus what
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: your might be. So tell us about life in Jackson, Alabama.
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: Oh, it's very small. Everybody knows everybody. It's just a
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: very close knit community. We had we do have a Walmart.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: That's one of the things that everybody has. We do
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: have Walmart. We do have traffic lights. But most most,
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: most of us grew up and lived on our own land,
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: dirt roads, had farms, you know, things of that native
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: very very country, very country.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Now now And how did you get out of Jackson?
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Was it education? A broach odic Jackson, job opportunities? How
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: did you get out of Jackson? What motivated you get
• 1:57
  Speaker 1: out of Jackson?
• 1:58
  Speaker 3: It was definitely educated, And I left. I left my
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: hometown on a full scholarship to Alabama and m University
• 2:07
  Speaker 3: in Huntsville, Alabama. And I knew that I was going
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: to leave and actually go to college and be a
• 2:13
  Speaker 3: CPA as early as the eleventh grade. So I knew
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: that I was getting out and I was gonna use
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: financial literacy as a way to do it. And that's
• 2:22
  Speaker 3: exactly what I did. So I left Jackson, Alabama, and
• 2:26
  Speaker 3: I haven't looked back. I love it.
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: First of all, you still got that accent now you're
• 2:30
  Speaker 1: not getting rid of that accent. You're not going to
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: go to New York at act like you're in New
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: Yorker now with this accent.
• 2:36
  Speaker 3: Absolutely not. I am a country girl born and braided.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: I love it. I love it.
• 2:41
  Speaker 3: Now.
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: You went to the HBCU, you know, Alabama, and muh,
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: did that have an impact in your life? Tell us
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: about that black excellence that they're teaching academically and these HPC.
• 2:50
  Speaker 3: Youths absolutely in a world where we are the minority,
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: going to a place where we was a majority and
• 2:57
  Speaker 3: we were treated as such really helped, I would say,
• 3:02
  Speaker 3: my self esteem, and it also helped how I looked
• 3:05
  Speaker 3: at myself when it when it came to a professional
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: in this big world outside of an HBCU, it kind
• 3:12
  Speaker 3: of built it kind of built me for what was
• 3:15
  Speaker 3: to come. And especially with the teachers that were there,
• 3:20
  Speaker 3: they prepared us in a way that I feel like
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: I would not have been prepared had I not gone
• 3:26
  Speaker 3: to an HBCU. So there were things that were taught
• 3:30
  Speaker 3: for us, like survival skills that I don't think I
• 3:33
  Speaker 3: would have gotten had I went to a had I
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: chosen a different school. And when I say survival, survival skills.
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: I'm not just talking about, you know, how to provide
• 3:42
  Speaker 3: for yourself or things of that nature. No, they taught
• 3:44
  Speaker 3: us how to operate in a world where we aren't
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: the majority, where systemic racism still exists. They taught us
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: how to, you know, always be prepared to over deliver
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: an underpromise, so that you're always on the or better.
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: And it definitely shows. I came out in twenty thirteen
• 4:06
  Speaker 3: and to say, I'm proud of my classmates and even
• 4:09
  Speaker 3: those before me and after me have done some amazing
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: things coming from an HBCU. Whereas when I expressed that
• 4:16
  Speaker 3: I would be going to an HBCU, I was met
• 4:19
  Speaker 3: with comments such as, you're so much better than that,
• 4:22
  Speaker 3: Why would you go there? Why would you limit yourself?
• 4:25
  Speaker 3: When in actuality, going to an HBCU was the best
• 4:27
  Speaker 3: thing I ever did, and it didn't limit me. It
• 4:30
  Speaker 3: actually catapulted me into my career and where I am today,
• 4:35
  Speaker 3: and I wouldn't change the thing.
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: Yuh, you are a motivator. I'm telling you. You know
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: they need to put you on tape. You know, they
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: need to put you like on the billboard right outside
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: of Alabama. A and M.
• 4:45
  Speaker 3: Yes, sir, listen to Jasmine Young.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: She will teach you right because you know a lot
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: of people stereotypes, you know, will stop you from being
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: reaching great heights. Because always that's why I always talk about,
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: you know, where you came from, because a lot of
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: people say, you know, they put people a certain educational reach,
• 5:07
  Speaker 1: because it's the same thing small towns in inner city
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: because I came from in the city fifth Ward, that's
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: where I was born and raised, So people like me
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: weren't supposed to get out according to them, you know,
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: people like me, you know, and when I met people,
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: they go, oh, you're different. You know. I never knew
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: how to take that when they said that, oh you're different,
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: you know, because because you know, it was always like,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: what do you mean different? You know, because my teachers
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: prepared me to be this way. They told me what
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: I could be in high school. Because if they didn't
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: tell me these things, like your teachers told you at
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: Alabama and m I'll tell you, I would not be
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: the person I am today. But they saw something in me,
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: jazz when it allowed me to be able to sit
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: on this microphone and talk to motivating people like you.
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: Because that's the story that you want to be able
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: to put out there. And what inspired me to do
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: this interview was that your drive about financial literacy spread
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: financial literacy around the world, one family at a time.
• 6:04
  Speaker 3: Talk to us about that absolutely. So I learned early
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: on that my passion for financial literacy was actually going
• 6:13
  Speaker 3: to was actually my purpose. And I'm blessed at both
• 6:16
  Speaker 3: my passion and my purpose aligned. Because I had a
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: knack for numbers growing up. I counted everything, even my
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: food particles, my steps. When I would repeat things to myself,
• 6:26
  Speaker 3: I had to say, I'm a certain amount of times,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: just really really big on numbers. I didn't know that
• 6:31
  Speaker 3: I had a great uncle who was a math jenius,
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: and apparently it was it passed down to me, so
• 6:38
  Speaker 3: I knew Back in high school when I was met
• 6:42
  Speaker 3: with the comment that everybody wasn't fed with a silver
• 6:44
  Speaker 3: spoone like me, it infuriated me, but it infuriated me
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: to make a difference, because in all actuality, I don't
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: believe I was fed with the silver spoone. My mom
• 6:54
  Speaker 3: and dad they grew up poor. I mean, we're already
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: in the country, but my mom was one of eight.
• 6:59
  Speaker 3: My dad is the baby wood seventeen. They were poor
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: and they didn't have a lot growing up. But one
• 7:03
  Speaker 3: thing I one thing they did for my brother and
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: I is they worked very very hard.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: They came from eight, they came from eight and seventeen,
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: and they just had two kids.
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: That's it.
• 7:18
  Speaker 1: Eight seventeen and you the baby continue to just throw.
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: I just had to stop that when you said eighteen
• 7:25
  Speaker 1: seventeen and then only just two of y'all and they
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: all on the farm.
• 7:30
  Speaker 3: Okay, but yeah, but we had a lot of cousins
• 7:33
  Speaker 3: and we grew up on our own land. And I'll
• 7:35
  Speaker 3: be honest, back then, I was ashamed of where I
• 7:39
  Speaker 3: came from because I lived on a dirt road. There
• 7:41
  Speaker 3: was no through traffic. Everybody knew everybody. It was farm
• 7:44
  Speaker 3: animals everywhere, trees, gullies, all types of things. And it
• 7:49
  Speaker 3: wasn't until I actually went to my HBCU and got
• 7:52
  Speaker 3: into my career that I realized that I really did.
• 7:56
  Speaker 3: I really did come from a rich heritage. Not only
• 8:01
  Speaker 3: not only the place that I lived it's called Indian Ridge,
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: but I'm an eighth Indian. I had no idea that
• 8:07
  Speaker 3: my grandparents were Cherokee Indians, had no ideas so we
• 8:12
  Speaker 3: lived on over seventy eight plus acres of our own land.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: Back then, as a child, I didn't realize that that
• 8:20
  Speaker 3: was something to be proud of us. All of these roads.
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: We walked the roads and ate from eight from the
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: fruit of the trees, plums, mustardized apples, pears, pigs like
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: we farmed. We had animals, pigs, horses, chickens like we
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: had it. But from my standpoint, because I had never
• 8:40
  Speaker 3: left Jackson, Alabama before I went to college, was this
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: is country, Like, why can't we live in the city,
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: you know, a big house we don't have We don't
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: have cable like, we don't have a pool. You know,
• 8:52
  Speaker 3: our rolls are dirt roads. But I realized that what
• 8:56
  Speaker 3: my parents gave my brother and I was a basic
• 8:59
  Speaker 3: foundation of how to be a responsible financial adult. And
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: they surrounded themselves with people that had the financial education
• 9:07
  Speaker 3: that they wanted to have. And then they also held
• 9:10
  Speaker 3: each other accountable for the finances in the household, even
• 9:13
  Speaker 3: down to me and my brother. My dad would give
• 9:15
  Speaker 3: us two people. My dad was always gone before we
• 9:18
  Speaker 3: got up to go to school because he was already
• 9:21
  Speaker 3: at work, but he would leave two twenty dollars bills,
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: two twenty dollars bills on the table, and my brother
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: and I knew that outside of any school requirement, if
• 9:30
  Speaker 3: we wanted to buy anything, whether it was gas for
• 9:34
  Speaker 3: the car, to get the band, practice, basketball practice, softball practice,
• 9:38
  Speaker 3: whatever snacks, anything, we had to make that twenty dollars
• 9:41
  Speaker 3: work because we weren't getting.
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: In this.
• 9:44
  Speaker 3: And it was it was actually that budget that my
• 9:47
  Speaker 3: dad gave us. To this day, my parents have never
• 9:49
  Speaker 3: purchased a cell phone for me. Every minute I had
• 9:52
  Speaker 3: on my cell phone back then, and I'm dating myself
• 9:54
  Speaker 3: was a bit. But the minutes that I had on
• 9:57
  Speaker 3: my phone back then, I purchased them because my dad
• 10:00
  Speaker 3: taught me, hey, look, this is all you get. You
• 10:02
  Speaker 3: gotta figure out how to make it work. And it
• 10:04
  Speaker 3: was that example that allowed us to be able to
• 10:08
  Speaker 3: have the things that we wanted to have. And to
• 10:11
  Speaker 3: my peers, because they weren't getting it, it looked as
• 10:14
  Speaker 3: if I was privileged or if I was fed with
• 10:16
  Speaker 3: a silver respoon, when in actuality, my parents gave my
• 10:19
  Speaker 3: brother an example and that was it, and I realized
• 10:24
  Speaker 3: that I wanted to and that's that's actually when I
• 10:26
  Speaker 3: decided that I wasn't gonna gonna become a professional singer,
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: Mayor Michael Jackson. I was asked, it gonna be a CPA.
• 10:34
  Speaker 1: Can you sing those, Jasmine?
• 10:36
  Speaker 3: You know I can hold the tunes.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: You know.
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: All the others were say different. But you know, I've
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: been seeing since I was five years old. It's not
• 10:46
  Speaker 3: something that I do often anymore. I did sing a
• 10:49
  Speaker 3: lot in hunting You.
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: You kid, they let you sing as you get older.
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: They tell you truth.
• 10:55
  Speaker 3: Okay, sung in I sung in college, and I also
• 11:02
  Speaker 3: sang on them at my church.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Oh, praise tea. Now praise t is a lot of
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: people now and there's a lot of energy.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: Okay, yeah, but you know that's I come from a
• 11:11
  Speaker 3: musically in client famous Okay.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: Cool, Okay, Now they got a musical ink class family
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: and then mathematically inclent family and you one eighth with
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: your one age Cherokee. Yes, sir, you're you're working it.
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: You're working it. First of all. First of all, Jasmine, y'all,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: this is an incredible interview from an authentic tone. You know,
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: because of the fact that you were telling me who
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: you are. You're honestly breaking down with I think coming
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: folk talk, coming folks talk because that's all I was offered,
• 11:42
  Speaker 1: you know, And I would complain. I would complain about
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: the clothes I wear, I would complain about everything, not
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: realizing that my parents did not allow anybody in our
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: house to curse. We couldn't curse. I didn't. I tell
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: people today, I did not utter a curse word until
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: I was nineteen years old. Nineteen years old because my
• 12:02
  Speaker 1: parents raised me that way. But I thought, oh my god,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: this is the worst. But in the process of raising
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: me that way, I had to speak correctly. I had
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: this no. I had to have a vernacular because I
• 12:15
  Speaker 1: always tell people you cursed, you use you like using
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: five words with a fireword, because it just shortcuts your
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: your intellect and shortcuts your ability to communicate. And so
• 12:25
  Speaker 1: when I hear your story, and I remember going, because
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: I'm from Houston, Texas, and we'd got to Bowisier and Shreeport, Louisiana,
• 12:32
  Speaker 1: and we see black people on the farm and they
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: had the little you know, the outhouses and the little
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: pain by the bed, and I would go, what the
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: heck is going on here? I can't get away from here.
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: But I realized now all my life I've been trying
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: to get back to that, Jasmine.
• 12:47
  Speaker 3: Absolutely, yes, yes, And it's like now when I go home,
• 12:53
  Speaker 3: I get the best sleep. It's so peaceful there. Wow,
• 12:57
  Speaker 3: it's so peaceful there.
• 12:59
  Speaker 4: Please don't go anywhere. We'll be right back with more
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: Money Making Conversations Masterclass. Welcome back to the Money Making
• 13:12
  Speaker 4: Conversations Masterclass hosted by Rashan McDonald.
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: The e they called the annual Black Wall Street Black
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: Business Expo. Tell us what that is all about, Miss Jasmine.
• 13:23
  Speaker 3: Yok Absolutely so. The Black Wall Street Black Business Expo
• 13:28
  Speaker 3: is a twofold event. Of course, we want to honor
• 13:33
  Speaker 3: the excellence that existed in the Greenwood District commonly known
• 13:39
  Speaker 3: as Black Wall Street in Tulsa, Oklahoma, back in the
• 13:41
  Speaker 3: nineteen hundred. Unfortunately, due to racism, that community was burned
• 13:47
  Speaker 3: down and in Black Wall Street. In the time of
• 13:50
  Speaker 3: Black Wall Street, that was actually a time where African
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: Americans exemplified exceptional amounts of wealth. However, since then, the
• 14:02
  Speaker 3: wealth gap has increased due to the demise of Black
• 14:05
  Speaker 3: Wall Street. So our event pays homage to our ancestors
• 14:10
  Speaker 3: who exemplify Black excellence through entrepreneurship, but it also is
• 14:14
  Speaker 3: a call to action for today's entrepreneurs to use that
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: spirit of Black Wall Street, one to recreate the generational
• 14:25
  Speaker 3: wealth that existed back then, but also to create social
• 14:29
  Speaker 3: change and use the black dollar to actually get legislators
• 14:33
  Speaker 3: to make bills and laws that will allow us the
• 14:38
  Speaker 3: equity and the social justice that we are. So it's
• 14:43
  Speaker 3: long overdue for us to receive. So we're using this event.
• 14:47
  Speaker 3: Go ahead.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: No, why aren't you running for public office? I'm telling you,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: I'm just hearing you. You're talking about social change, just
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: mentioned politics. You out here, you have a good sense,
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: you have a very very marketable personality. You have an
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: engaging tone of of how you are, your background, and
• 15:11
  Speaker 1: how you're gonna move the community for why aren't you
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: running for public office?
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: Well, I'll be honest with you. Going through school, I
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: actually hated politics. I hated governments, which doesn't make sense
• 15:24
  Speaker 3: because I spent eleven and a half years of my
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: life as as a government employee. But I have come
• 15:31
  Speaker 3: to have a passion for social action and making a difference,
• 15:37
  Speaker 3: and I realized that for our community, the way for
• 15:44
  Speaker 3: us to make I guess you could say move the
• 15:48
  Speaker 3: needle in where we need to be economically is we
• 15:51
  Speaker 3: have to be civically engaged. The two are are synonymous.
• 15:55
  Speaker 3: You cannot have one without the other. And it just
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: goes back to the Black Wall Street store, which was
• 16:01
  Speaker 3: one of my inspirations. And you know, I'm actually toying
• 16:05
  Speaker 3: with the idea of actually going to law school. I've
• 16:07
  Speaker 3: ordered my Lsat book and I'm thinking that's the way
• 16:10
  Speaker 3: I want to go. But I would do not. I
• 16:13
  Speaker 3: don't want to fit for the bar because it's literally
• 16:15
  Speaker 3: like seeing for the CPA exam, of course without numbers.
• 16:19
  Speaker 3: But I do want to see us in a better
• 16:21
  Speaker 3: place than I believe as a community we can be
• 16:24
  Speaker 3: in a better place because we've done it before and
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: Black Wall Street is an example of it.
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: Now, when you thought of this idea, what motive did
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: you have? A did you pitch it to somebody and
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: they go, what are you talking about? What did you think?
• 16:38
  Speaker 3: I did not. I'll tell you what what sparked this.
• 16:42
  Speaker 3: I actually wanted to do the event in twenty twenty
• 16:45
  Speaker 3: but COVID hit so I killed the idea. I tabled it,
• 16:51
  Speaker 3: and then the murder of George Floyd happened in twenty
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: twenty one. And what sparked it was, you know, corporations
• 16:58
  Speaker 3: start to state their claims they back the blue or
• 17:00
  Speaker 3: whether black lives matter, and for those that said they
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: backed the blue, our community said, okay, well, if you
• 17:06
  Speaker 3: back the blue, we're not going to support you. And
• 17:09
  Speaker 3: some of those corporations actually change their stans because we
• 17:13
  Speaker 3: decided that we weren't going to spend money with them.
• 17:15
  Speaker 3: Right now, if you're familiar with the financial industry and
• 17:19
  Speaker 3: the African American buying power, we are the largest group
• 17:22
  Speaker 3: of consumers in the world. So for a corporation to decide,
• 17:26
  Speaker 3: you know what, if this group of people are not
• 17:28
  Speaker 3: going to support us because we don't support what their
• 17:31
  Speaker 3: social justice, we got to change our stans. And it
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: was at that moment that I knew this is the
• 17:37
  Speaker 3: answer to all our social injustice issues is recirculating the
• 17:42
  Speaker 3: black dollar in our community and making those that want
• 17:45
  Speaker 3: our money play by our rules. And that's why I
• 17:48
  Speaker 3: started the Black Wall Street Black Business expos.
