What if the titans of industry weren’t all villains?
We’ve heard the horror stories—sweatshops, child labor, CEOs swimming in bonuses while workers drown in debt. But what if we told you that some of history’s most powerful capitalists actually had a conscience?
The Compassionate Capitalists pulls back the curtain on the forgotten entrepreneurs who built empires without grinding their workers into dust. From Henry Ford doubling wages overnight to Madam C.J. Walker building a beauty empire that empowered thousands of Black women, these industrialists dared to prove that you could run a successful business without being a soulless overlord.
Packed with wild stories, jaw-dropping contrasts to today’s corporate nonsense, and one core message—you don’t have to be a jerk to get rich—this book is for:
- Workers tired of being gaslit.
- Business owners who want to do better.
- History lovers ready to meet the capitalists you weren’t taught about in school.
Smart. Irreverent. Infuriatingly relevant.
This isn’t a fairy tale. It’s a reminder that business can be ethical—and still booming.
