35 - How DeFi Helps Marginalized Communities with Isaiah Jackson, Author of Bitcoin & Black America

We talk about how he got into the blockchain space, and how he used resources like the Bitcoin whitepaper, a range of websites and forums, and YouTube to learn as much as possible about the technology. We also cover crypto regulation in the US and what it means for widespread adoption of crypto.

Isaiah talks about his book and what inspired him to write it. He explains why the traditional finance system in the US doesn’t serve the black and brown community, and how decentralized finance can help solve some of these deep-set issues.

We discuss how decentralized finance still needs to change to solve these social problems, and how projects like Blackchain are helping. Finally, Isaiah shares some ways that members of the black community can start getting involved in crypto today.
