ABOUT US

Literacy Kings breaks down popular financial books in a culturally relevant way for people of color who have been marginalized.

Host Corey Paul (Rapper and Entrepreneur) and JaMorcus Trayham, MBA (Investor and Teacher) grew up in a neighborhood with a 30% drop out rate and didn’t start reading books until we were adults. Our lives changed! If you're trying to learn more about money, building generational wealth, entrepreneurship, business, or investing, plug in!
