NBA player Jaylen Brown signed a massive $300M contract and is looking to bring “Black Wall Street” to Boston

After inking a lucrative contract with the Boston Celtics, NBA player Jaylen Brown is now trying to disperse his fortune among Black people.

After agreeing to a record-breaking five-year, $303.7 million contract with the Boston Celtics, Jaylen made his plans to bring “Black Wall Street to Boston” and contribute to the generational wealth-building process known during a news conference on Wednesday.

“I want to launch a project to bring Black Wall Street here in Boston,” Jaylen said, according to ESPN. “I want to attack the wealth disparity here.”

“I think there’s analytics that supports that stimulating the wealth gap could actually be something that could be betterment for the entire economy.”

In the Northeast, Jaylen thinks his plan would “create new jobs, new resources, new businesses, new ideas,” much like the first Black Wall Street, which was constructed in 1871 by wealthy Black Tulsa, Oklahoma, residents.

“Boston could be a fully integrated self-sufficient hub,” the two-time NBA All-Star said. “I think Boston could be the pilot, not just for wealth disparity here in the US, but also for around the world.”

Along with helping his community, Jaylen has also been vocal about raising awareness about systemic racism and changing the negative narrative surrounding Black men.
