In 2004 Carol Jenkins and her daughter penned a wonderful book about her Grandfather A. G. Gaston.  It is a work that should remain in the black cannon of literature.  But, unlike others our works like our history seeps out of America's history.  Well not anymore.  Through the generous gift of $1 Million Dollars from a Philanthropist who will Join Carol...A. G. Gaston's Legacy will live again.  Meet a few titans who know that financial empowerment is an important conversation for people of color today. The Philanthropist, the young entrepreneur and Jenkins. Jenkins is a writer and producer, and Emmy award winning former television anchor and correspondent, well known for her tenure with WNBC-TV in New York. Jenkins now serves as president of the Women's Media Center, a nonprofit advocacy organizations founded in 2004 to make women visible and powerful in the media.
