Deborah Owens, host of Wealthy Radio on WEAA, talked to Dr. Maya Rockeymoore recently about the lack of wealth in black households, which Rockeymoore wrote about on Forbes.com.

We need to focus on the vast majority of African American women who are struggling to get by from paycheck to paycheck and who are the least likely group to ever be married. So we really need to focus on single black women.
