James Ford on how Charlotte's economic growth hasn't included many local residents

James Ford of Leading on Opportunity describes his personal journey of moving to Charlotte and growing up in a region of tremendous economic opportunity for many, but not all, residents. He explains a multi-year effort to study the reasons why long-time residents are, or can be disconnected, from the economic opportunities that seem bountiful in some urban areas.
