Two Words That Explain What's Happening to the U.S. Right Now | Jice Johnson

The United States is losing its position in the world, and that has real implications for Black America, our small businesses, our wages, our opportunities, even our passports and our mobility. In this video, I break down two forces driving that shift, erosion and inroads, both of which have been building quietly for fifty-plus years and neither of which is finished yet. I walk through what that looks like right now, from the silver tsunami hitting small businesses, to the AI race straining resources, to the geopolitical shift across the Caribbean and South America, to the monetary shift happening through BRICS, mBridge, and Canada's very recent break from its trade agreement with the U.S. Then I walk through six places you can start preparing today, as an entry point into a bigger planning conversation. I'm Jice Johnson, business strategist and economic developer, and on this channel we talk about business, leadership, and global politics. Subscribe for more breakdowns like this one.
