Equity Over Everything

“If they don’t give you a seat at the table, bring a folding chair.”

– Shirley Chisholm

What is Equity Over Everything?

Equity Over Everything’s mission is to advance equity by closing the gaps in social equity, entrepreneurship and homeownership within low resource communities across the south.

EOE has 3 GOALS

Social Equity

To establish a safe space that is inviting and supporting to community members where they can tackle tough issues, laugh, dance and thrive.

Entrepreneurship

To establish incubation, acceleration, and co-working programs that are inviting and supporting to businesses built by minority entrepreneurs from all walks of life.

Home-Ownership

To establish a homeownership seminar with 6 month, 12 month, and 24 month wrap-around support for minority individuals and families from under-resourced communities to help remove barriers.

“The onus of every generation is to discover their link in our fight for total liberation. Freedom is a continuum, and Equity Over Everything is our stake in this great legacy work.”

-Sheneika Smith,
Asheville City Council Member
