Employment Discrimination’S Impact On African American’S Professional And Personal Lives, Trey D. Williams

Information Systems Undergraduate Honors Theses

Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 makes it illegal to discriminate against a person because of their race, color, religion, sex, or national origin.

Investment Behavior: Factors That Limit African Americans' Investment Behavior, Crystal Hudson, John Young, Sophia Anong, Elania Hudson, Edward Davis

Journal of Financial Therapy

This study investigated factors that are likely to limit African Americans’ investment activity in the stock market by triangulating data from the 2015 FINRA Financial Capacity Study and a Financial Behavior/Capacity survey that targeted African Americans. The financial survey revealed the top self-reported reasons these African Americans gave for not investing which were, “I don't understand how the stock market works”, “I don't make enough money” and “I don’t want to lose my money". Logistic regression results for the FINRA African American sample indicate that those with more financial knowledge, those who participated in financial education, and those who were …

Servant Leadership And African American Pastors, Clarence Bunch

Antioch University Full-Text Dissertations & Theses

Robert Greenleaf (1977) took a follower’s, rather than a leader-centric, point of view of leadership by describing a leader as one who leads by serving. He identified a leader as one who sets other people’s needs above his or her own. He argued that motivation of leaders must begin with the conscious choice to serve others. Greenleaf’s concept provides the basis for a theoretical model of servant leadership. This dissertation examines the extent to which African American pastors exhibit servant leadership characteristics, using the Servant Leadership Questionnaire (Barbuto & Wheeler, 2006). A sample of 358 African American pastors from 11 …
