In this powerful episode of *History of Being Black*, Dr. Audia Robinson takes us on a journey from her roots in Pittsburgh to her work as a scholar dedicated to community engagement and generational wealth in Black communities.
At the heart of this conversation is a bold reframe: moving from a mindset of survival to one of legacy. Drawing from her upcoming book, *The Shift from Survival to Legacy*, Dr. Robinson challenges long-held narratives around scarcity and struggle—offering a vision rooted in ownership, education, and long-term impact.
This episode explores how education can serve as a disruptive force, why collective action is essential to building Black wealth, and how healing from financial trauma is a necessary step toward economic empowerment. With insight, honesty, and hope, Dr. Robinson paints a path forward—one where future generations inherit not just resilience, but resources, opportunity, and legacy.
This is more than history—it’s a blueprint for the future.
