What are they saying about Surviving and Thriving: 365 Facts in Black Economic History

“Dr. Malveaux’s presentation at the Charles H. Wright Museum of African-American History was educational, enlightening and entertaining. She brought to light history that many of us in the history museum field were not familiar with. We look forward to having her back at the museum.” – Tyrone Davenport,  Chief Operating Officer, Charles H. Wright Museum of African American History

“A much-needed and invaluable contribution illuminating two centuries of black economic history. Challenging and immensely readable, Surviving and Thriving informs us not only of the great diversity of African American entrepreneurial activities from slavery to freedom but also on black participation in and contributions to both state and national government economic policies. Dr. Julianne Malveaux’s “365 facts” underscores for many a forgotten past, that African Americans have had a long history of economic participation in and contributions to American life.   Indeed, a compelling must-read for the general public, academics and policy makers in both the private and public sectors. “

Juliet E. K. Walker, PhD, University of Texas at Austin — the great great granddaughter of Free Frank and author of The History of Black Business in America: Capitalism, Race, Entrepreneurship
