Can two pastors help overcome racial inequity through managing an early-stage venture capital fund?

After years working in and through the church and other advocacy efforts, two Twin Cities pastors made a major pivot in their faith and vocational journeys. They came to believe that investing in Black and Brown entrepreneurs would have more substantial impact on racial injustice. They launched Brown Venture Group as an act of faith, determination, and hope.
