It suppresses the wages of workers,” he said at the Minority Entrepreneurs Conference.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; border: 0px; outline: 0px; background: 0px 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: Montserrat, -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif;">Bannon, who worked on Trump’s presidential campaign before being appointed to serve in his administration, was invited to be the keynote speaker of the event, which was organized by Black Americans for a Better Future, a conservative SuperPAC that aims to empower African American entrepreneurs.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; border: 0px; outline: 0px; background: 0px 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: Montserrat, -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif;">During his speech, Bannon talked about helping entrepreneurs of color by granting them access to capital for and eliminating unfair competition. He also discussed Trump’s push to bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. and pursue economic nationalism.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; border: 0px; outline: 0px; background: 0px 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: Montserrat, -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif;">“Economic nationalism does not care about your color, your race, your ethnicity,” Bannon said. “It doesn’t care about your religion, it doesn’t care about your gender, it doesn’t care about your sexual preference.” He went on to lament the “destruction of the black and Hispanic working class,” who he said have fallen victim to a “globalist” economic agenda.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; border: 0px; outline: 0px; background: 0px 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: Montserrat, -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif;">According to the PAC’s founder, GOP strategist Raynard Jackson, Bannon connected with the attendees and received a positive response.</p><p style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; border: 0px; outline: 0px; background: 0px 0px rgb(255, 255, 255); font-size: 14px; vertical-align: baseline; font-family: Montserrat, -apple-system, system-ui, BlinkMacSystemFont, "Segoe UI", Roboto, "Helvetica Neue", Arial, sans-serif;">“He speaks in a language that we understand,” Jackson told&nbsp;<span style="box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; border: 0px; outline: 0px; background: 0px 0px; vertical-align: baseline; font-weight: 700;">Black Enterprise</span>. “He, himself, is a small business owner, so he understands the government regulations necessary to set up a business. He also understands public policy. He understands the frustration of an entrepreneur who may be trying to do business with a federal agency.”</p></div><div><font face="Times New Roman" size="4"></font></div><div><ul class="positions" style="margin: 0px;
