The  BOSS Project was created to cultivate authentic leadership and entrepreneurial thinking among Black American youths.  Participants will engage in online and offline activities that enhance their understanding of the values and principles that allowed Tulsa, Oklahoma’s Black Wall Street entrepreneurs (1906-1921) to build opportunity and sustain success in hostile social and economic environments.  Ultimately, the BOSS Project will serve as a catalyst for participants’ pursuing and obtaining post-secondary education and/or training, and starting and running successful business enterprises.
