Arian Simone Takes Fearless Freedom Mission on Multi-City Tour

The 304-page book, published by Storehouse Voices, chronicles Simone’s journey as an entrepreneur and CEO of the Fearless Fund, the first venture capital firm established by women of color to support founders of the same background. It features a foreword by civil rights attorney Ben Crump and an afterword by Stacey Abrams, moving beyond the headlines of the legal battles that have defined the firm's recent history to offer a blueprint for building wealth and navigating systemic barriers in finance.

Simone’s tour schedule includes stops in Washington, D.C., New York City, Detroit, and Atlanta, targeting a mix of business, faith, and literary audiences. Key events include a town hall at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s Annual Legislative Conference, a discussion with CNN anchor Abby Phillip in New York, and a fireside chat with Stacey Abrams at the Decatur Book Festival. Public sessions, including a symposium in Detroit featuring The Lip Bar founder Melissa Butler, aim to engage entrepreneurs directly on the themes of resilience and leadership discussed in the manifesto.
