Clermont & The Black Wall Streets of America: Towards a Black Stock Exchange:Judge Woody R. Clermont is a writer, educator, leader, and attorney whose work bridges law, economics, history, data science, spirituality, and personal transformation. A Haitian American judge admitted to practice in New York, Florida, and New Jersey, Judge Clermont brings over 21 years of courtroom experience to the bench. He is an award-winning author, recipient of multiple Literary Titan Gold and Silver Book Awards and a Second Place BookFest Award — most recently in the Business Industries category for his latest work.The Black Wall Streets of America: Towards a Black Stock Exchange traces the rise of historic Black business districts such as Greenwood, Hayti, and Bronzeville, examining how African Americans built wealth and institutional power despite systemic exclusion — and how these ecosystems were intentionally dismantled. Blending history with economics, the book reframes Black Wall Street not as nostalgia but as a scalable model for modern wealth creation, presenting concrete strategies involving cooperative ownership, community land trusts, Black-led financial institutions, and exchange-centered capital systems. It serves as both a blueprint and a mandate — calling for a shift from survival economics to sovereignty through deliberate control of capital, production, and markets.Learn more at woodycbooks.com.This event is FREE and open to the public.
