  In this insightful Market Mondays clip, host Rashad Bilal sits down with Pastor Jamal Bryant, a renowned leader in theology who’s made major waves in business activism. Pastor Bryant breaks down the reasoning and strategies behind the massive boycott of Target—a movement that’s become the largest Black-led boycott in 70 years.Discover why Target became the focal point after 14 Fortune 500 companies backed away from their DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) commitments following Donald Trump’s inauguration. Pastor Bryant reveals staggering stats, such as Black consumers spending $12 million a day at Target, and how the company’s $2 billion pledge to support Black businesses was abandoned. He details the four clear demands made to Target, from investing in Black banks, partnering with HBCUs, fulfilling their George Floyd commitment, to rewriting their DEI blueprint to offer real pathways to executive leadership for Black professionals.Learn how these efforts have already created real market shifts: Target’s valuation dropped by $12 billion, its stock fell from $145 to $93, foot traffic is down by nearly 8%, and the CEO's salary was slashed by 42%. Pastor Bryant illustrates the power of cooperative economics and the need for creating and redirecting financial influence within the Black community.Whether you’re interested in social activism, business strategy, or the intersection of community power and corporate accountability, you don’t want to miss this clip!*Hashtags:* #MarketMondays #TargetBoycott #JamalBryant #DEI #BlackBusiness #HBCU #GeorgeFloyd #EconomicEmpowerment #CooperativeEconomics #BusinessActivism #MarketMondaysClip---Tune in, learn the facts, and discover how strategic activism is driving real change on today’s Market Mondays.Our Sponsors:* Check out PNC Bank: https://www.pnc.com* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

• AI: Humanity’s Savior or Greatest Threat? 19 Keys Breaks It Down

  In this thought-provoking clip from Market Mondays, renowned futurist and entrepreneur 19 Keys sits down with Ian Dunlap for an intimate, no-holds-barred discussion about the role of artificial intelligence in our culture and economic future. Is AI a threat to cultural identity and prosperity, or could it be a tool for empowerment and resilience? The conversation digs deep into the duality of technology and the mindset required to navigate the fast-evolving digital landscape.19 Keys emphasizes that imagination is humanity’s greatest strength, setting us apart and enabling us to shape the future. He challenges the popular narrative rooted in negative collective memories and urges the community to reframe their relationship with technology—not to fear it, but to master it with intention and creativity. According to 19 Keys, the real asset in this new era isn’t just time—it’s cognition. The quality of your thinking and capacity for adaptation have become the ultimate KPIs, especially in a world where AI is a “Messianic digital figure” for many.The clip touches on the MIT report warning about “cognitive debt” from overusing AI, highlighting that mindlessly relying on tech decreases your long-term memory and problem-solving skills. 19 Keys shares his disciplined approach: thinking independently before consulting AI, constantly questioning its output, and focusing on sustained neurological growth—neuro-adaptation—rather than just short-term memory boosts. He underscores the importance of rituals like journaling, reflection, and taking action on insights, explaining that optimal results come from human + AI synergy, not from blindly following algorithms.If you want insights into safeguarding your cognitive wellness and using AI as a lever for success—without losing your sense of self—this clip is a must-watch.*Tune in and join the conversation on how we can consciously shape the future of our culture, economy, and minds.*---*Hashtags:*#MarketMondays #19Keys #IanDunlap #ArtificialIntelligence #AIFuture #Cognition #DigitalWellness #BlackExcellence #Futurism #CultureAndTech #AIEthics #DigitalResilience #PersonalDevelopmentOur Sponsors:* Check out PNC Bank: https://www.pnc.com* Check out Progressive: https://www.progressive.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
