Summary

Today's episode is an interview with political scientist, author, essayist and scholar Germinal G. Van. Born and raised in Ivory Coast, Germinal is the author of 14 books, and has authored "The Economic Condition of Black America in the 20th Century", his most recent work. His education includes a Bachelor's degree in Political Science from the Catholic University of America and a Master's degree in Political Management from George Washington University. In this episode, we discuss American politics from the past and present, his findings on economics in America from his research, social justice, and his viewpoints on entrepreneurialism and success mindset. Germinal offers a different perspective from his unique experiences. It was a pleasure to learn so much from this brilliant thinker, and hope this episode is as enlightening to all who listen.
