Foreword Authors Andrew Young, Ed Bastian, and Michael Milken to host John Hope Bryant for Tour Stops in Atlanta and Washington, D.C.

ATLANTA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Operation HOPE, a national nonprofit dedicated to helping low-and moderate-income Americans thrive in an ever-changing economy, announced today the upcoming release of its Founder, Chairman and CEO John Hope Bryant’s latest book, Capitalism For All: Inclusive Economics and the Future-Proofing of America. The book will be published by Wiley on March 31, 2026.

Following the book release, Operation HOPE will launch a national town hall series, the “Capitalism for All Tour: Rebuilding the American Economic Ladder,” which will travel to communities across the United States from April through September 2026. The “Capitalism for All Tour” will convene local corporate and civic leaders, Operation HOPE coaches, clients and partners for candid, solutions-oriented conversations on financial dignity, economic resilience and inclusive prosperity. Each stop will bring the book’s ideas to life by showcasing real-world outcomes from Operation HOPE’s work at the community level.

The tour will include sit-downs with the three authors of the forewords: Delta Air Lines CEO Ed Bastian, Michael Milken, and Ambassador Andrew Young. The tour will kick off in Atlanta on April 1st at Clark Atlanta University, with Ambassador Young sitting in conversation with Mr. Bryant. Other confirmed stops feature Mr. Bastian and Mr. Bryant at the Metro Atlanta Chamber of Commerce, the Milken Center for Advancing the American Dream in Washington D.C., and Marshall University with President Brad Smith.

Mr. Bryant’s seventh book, Capitalism For All, reflects decades of experience empowering underserved communities and makes the case that inclusive capitalism - not exclusionary policies – is the key to restoring the American middle class, maintaining the nation’s position as the world’s leading economy, and ensuring the American Dream remains within reach for all. The book explores how to rebuild America’s opportunity ladders by leveraging technology as an equalizer, preparing for the impact of AI, and creating sustainable jobs for the future. It also presents detailed business plans for the country and insights on stakeholder capitalism, offering actionable strategies for business leaders, policymakers, community organizers, and engaged citizens to help drive broad-based economic prosperity.

The book has received praise from a broad coalition of influential voices across business, technology, sports and social impact including former Walmart CEO Doug McMillon, T.D. Jakes, Google and Alphabet President and Chief Investment Officer Ruth Porat, iHeart Media CEO Bob Pittman, Van Jones, LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, Verizon CEO Dan Schulman, San Francisco 49ers owner and CEO Jed York, OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar, and Dr. Bernice A. King, among several other notable leaders.

Capitalism For All builds on the legacy of Bryant’s bestselling 2024 book, Financial Literacy for All, which remained a bestseller across multiple categories for more than a year. Bryant also serves as the Founder, Chair, and CEO of Bryant Group Ventures, is a contributor to CNBC and TIME, hosts the top-ranked podcast Money and Wealth with John Hope Bryant on iHeart, and has had over 1 billion video views on his social media over the past two years.

Capitalism For All is available for purchase at all major booksellers including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and Walmart.
