Published: Nov. 15, 2021, 5 a.m.

\u201cCryptocurrencies don't require a gatekeeper \u2014 which is very important for minority communities that have been\xa0systematically marginalized and intentionally red-lined. You need to be in this like yesterday.\u201d\nTonya M. Evans, Esq, is a published author, investor, entrepreneur, and tenured professor of law at Penn State Dickinson Law School with expertise on how decentralized financial systems (blockchains, cryptocurrencies, NFT) can be impactful for minority communities. Prof. Evans was named to the prestigious Forbes 50 Over 50 List in the category of Investment to honor 50 women who are shaping the future of finance, fueling high-growth businesses, and forging a more innovative and inclusive financial future. From her time as an elite athlete (she was the #1 player on the BOYS tennis team) to Lady180 rapper (she spits a few bars for us), she has always spoken her truth. Through her work, she continues to educate those on the values of property ownership in an increasingly decentralized and tech-driven economy - which can help close the wealth gap among minority communities. And while Raman was on a \u201cfield trip\u201d to Arrakis, FrieMMd of the Pod + Canadian Podcaster Melissa Haughton joined Sharon to talk with Professor Tonya in only a way that she and Sharon could.\nLEARN ABOUT TONYA\n\nProfessor Tonya Evans\n\n\n\nAdvantage Evans Academy\n\n\n\nTech Intersect Podcast\n\n\n\nFollow her on Instagram: @ipprofevans\n\n\n\nFollow her on Twitter: @ipprofevans\n\n\n\n\nMENTIONS\n\nSONG: \u201cFind Your Own Shine\u201d https://spoti.fi/3wBJ4ES\n\n\n\n\nFILM: Poetic Justice (1993) - imdb.com/title/tt0107840\n\n\n\nPERSON: Michelle Obama - wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelle_Obama\n\n\n\n\nLearn more about your ad choices.
