Join us for a special live conversation with John Hope Bryant, entrepreneur, bestselling author, philanthropist, and Founder, Chairman & CEO of Operation HOPE, as he comes to New Haven for an exclusive bookish conversation with Black Kidds Read Too centered around his newest book, Capitalism for All.

This conversation, moderated by Da Kidd P.G., will explore John Hope Bryant’s journey through entrepreneurship, financial literacy, economic empowerment, leadership, and community impact, while diving into his belief that financial opportunity and economic participation should be accessible to everyone.
