  • From Cotton to Coca-Cola: a Family History Case Study on the Limitations of Higher Education to Close the Generational Wealth Gap
    FROM COTTON TO COCA-COLA: A FAMILY HISTORY CASE STUDY ON THE LIMITATIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION TO CLOSE THE GENERATIONAL WEALTH GAP Jacqueline Jordan Irvine Emory University Journal Committed to Social Change on Race and Ethnicity Volume 2, Issue 2 | 2016 Copyright © 2016 Board of Regents of The University of Oklahoma on behalf of the Southwest Center for Human Relations Studies. Permission of the Publisher is required for resale or distribution and for all derivative works, including compilations and translations. Quoting small sections of text is allowed as long as there is appropriate attribution. Journal Committed to Social Change on Race and Ethnicity | 2016 FROM COTTON TO COCA-COLA: A FAMILY HISTORY CASE STUDY ON THE LIMITATIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION TO CLOSE THE GENERATIONAL WEALTH GAP Jacqueline Jordan Irvine Emory University This article is a family history that supported the relationship between slavery and generational wealth. The research documented the history of two Moffett families who were probably not related biologically—a White one who owned a Black one with the same last name. However, the two family histories revealed a larger and more complicated narrative about the origins and intractable roots of American inequality that follows the trail of my slave ancestors to one of the most well- known and wealthiest international corporations in the world—from cotton to Coca-Cola. This is the account of a set of conditions that, while assisting Whites to acquire generational wealth, prevented Black people from doing the same. The piece discusses how generational wealth is accumulated and maintained and argues that higher education alone has provided limited opportunities for Black families to acquire and maintain generational wealth.

    Equitable Building, Atlanta, Library of Congress. A PROFILE IN GEORGIA’S BUSINESS HISTORY THE BEGINNINGS In 2019, SunTrust Bank along with BB&T Corp. announced a merger between the two regional banks resulting in the 6th largest bank in the United States. This merger—the largest of its kind since the 2008 economic recession—represents a pattern of consistent growth throughout SunTrust Bank’s history and underscores SunTrust’s long and significant history in Georgia. The Commercial Travelers’ Savings Bank was granted a charter, or approval, to open its doors from the Georgia General Assembly in 1891. The bank was founded by a group of 24 men in Atlanta—none of which were bankers—and during an economic recession in the post-Civil War era. The bank survived its first year of business competing against at least 18 other banks in the city. The founders were unsure about the future of their endeavor but it wouldn’t take long for the bank to cement its place in the economic history of Atlanta and the Southeastern region. In 1893, the name of the bank was changed to the Trust Company of Georgia (TCG) reflecting a shift in its overall business. Under the leadership of Joel Hurt, TCG became a trust and investment bank, managing banking services for companies, buying and selling stocks, and assisting mergers (when two companies join together).

In the same year, the bank’s office was relocated to Atlanta’s first “skyscraper,” an eight story building known as the Equitable Building—built and owned by the president of TCG, Joel Hurt.
