To start closing the Black wealth gap, teach personal finance to high school students

Seaananews. Opinion contributor Yanely Espinal writes: "Taking a personal finance class equalizes understanding for all students. They learn that owning a car usually decreases wealth, while investing in an IRA increases wealth. They explore real-world topics like establishing credit, investing in the stock market, filing taxes, and choosing different types of insurance.
