Vewiser Dixon has been acquiring land in the South Vine Corridor, south of the Historic Jazz District in Kansas City, hoping to build a "Black Silicon Valley." Dixon, born and raised in the 18th and Vine neighborhood, plans includes high-technology training and entrepreneurial support to encourage minority tech start-up companies. He also wants to help develop residential, retail and professional space around Lincoln College Preparatory Academy so students are surrounded by jobs and successful black-owned businesses.
