On this episode of The Big PayBLACK we have Cicley Gay, a seasoned nonprofit and philanthropic leader with over 20 years of experience who now serves as board chairwoman of the Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation (BLMGNF).

Gay is holding nothing back, getting candid about Black Lives Matter’s controversy involving the house that was purchased prior to her taking on the position of board chair. She also talks about managing with other members of the board, over $90 million in donations, and setting up taxes for the first time.

Pastor Jamal Bryant is bringing the Black church back to the forefront of the movement by leading a boycott against Target, and other retailers for rolling back its equity, diversity and inclusion efforts. A store like Target that had previously supported Black businesses in such a pronounced way, began making headlines when the retailer made the decision to change their policies which directly impacted Black business owners—and as a result—impacted Black consumers. Here to talk about that in the very first episode of The Big PayBlack is Dr. Jamal Bryant, pastor of New Hope Missionary Baptist Church.
