Greetings! I am an economist and for more than a decade I have offered a new way of looking at minorities and immigrants as ethnic capital: economic, cultural, social and political assets. If we look at these communities from this perspective we will discover a new engine for economic and social growth in America with potential greater than that unleashed by the internet. Their economic contributions are larger than the GDP of many countries in the world and they add much to the social, cultural and innovation fabric of America. Please join me (and other community leaders you will meet on these pages) on this exciting journey of possibilities.
