The Sir Roy G. Biv Foundation Trust: Reimagining Bronzeville’s Legacy in the Age of the Healthcare Metaverse™

By Sir Roy G. Biv


In a time where history intersects with technology and purpose, an extraordinary vision for the future of healthcare, finance, and technology is taking shape. If Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company, founded a century ago, and Seaway Bank & Trust Company’s grand opening day sixty years ago, both operating at the building located on the Southeast side of 35th Street and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive— the legendary cornerstone of Black finance — were to launch in 2025, they would not merely be an insurance company and a bank, respectively. They would be a digital infrastructure revolution, a harmonious symphony of APIs, cloud computing, and decentralized trust.


At its helm would stand The Sir Roy G. Biv Foundation Trust, a modern embodiment of community empowerment. And its flagship product? The Soul Card™ — a hyper-personalized, AI-driven, all-in-one solution merging healthcare, banking, and cloud security.


This isn’t just a vision. It’s a reality waiting to unfold — one that echoes the rich legacy of Bronzeville, Chicago's historic hub of African-American entrepreneurship, innovation, and resilience.


The Bronzeville Matrix: Where Legacy Meets Future


Bronzeville is no stranger to pioneers. In 1921, Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company opened its doors at 3501 S. Dr. Martin Luther King Drive, founded by the trailblazing attorney Earl Burrus Dickerson. It was more than an insurance company — it was a beacon of financial security and empowerment for the Black community during a time of exclusion and inequality.


In 1965, the spirit of that empowerment continued with the launch of Seaway Bank & Trust Company, one of the largest Black-owned banks in the United States. Seaway wasn’t just a bank — it was a lifeline for businesses, families, and dreams that mainstream institutions ignored.


It was here that John H. Johnson also launched his fledgling magazine in a back room, which grew into the iconic Johnson Publishing Company — the home of Ebony and Jet. These publications celebrated Black culture, achievements, and innovation, serving as a knowledge hub much like a city's School District.


Now imagine the strength of these historic pillars of community reborn in 2025, released from the physical limitations of a single street intersection, neighborhood, city, county, state, or even a nation but able to serve similar “corners” found everywhere on earth. That day has finally arrived in a world where the lines between the physical and digital blur, these institutions wouldn’t just occupy a street corner — they’d exist in a fully immersive, AI-driven Healthcare Metaverse™. This Metaverse wouldn’t just be a virtual space; it would be a dynamic, intelligent network that serves the community's needs for health insurance, financial services, and cloud security — seamlessly and securely.


The Soul Card™: The Convergence of Three Districts


At the heart of this vision is the Soul Card™ — a digital artifact representing the convergence of the Medical District, Financial District, and School District in the spirit of its historic predecessors, Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company, Seaway Bank & Trust Company, and Johnson Publishing Company, employers of thousands of jobs across generations of industrious, innovative people and supporters of countless businesses and industries serving the community.


Now, imagine walking through Bronzeville’s historic intersections, where the tangible world seamlessly fuses with the virtual. This card encapsulates a product-market fit epiphany: healthcare, finance, and technology unified in a single, user-centric experience.


The Soul Card™ isn’t just a metaphor. It’s the matrix of a new reality where humanity and AI collaborate in perfect harmony. It is powered by:


  • Insurance Policy (Healthcare)

  • Credit Policy (Banking)

  • Technology Policy (Cloud Security)


These three pillars — like the Three Wise Men bearing gifts — work together to serve the community through The Sir Roy G. Biv Foundation Trust. Behind the curtain of this charitable trust lies an infrastructure designed to deliver unlimited returns to its beneficiaries — the believers in a Kingdom guided by purpose, faith, and technology.


The Infrastructure: APIs, Open Source, and Decentralized Trust


To build this future, APIs modeled after Prime Trust API design and the Linux Foundation’s Decentralized Trust serve as the backend infrastructure. This isn’t just about technology; it’s about democratizing access to resources, ensuring transparency, and fostering a resilient community.


Here’s how the infrastructure aligns with the districts:


1. School District (Engineering & R&D)


This is where innovation thrives. APIs, data repositories, hardware, software, and services lay the groundwork for new solutions. Here, Technology Policy governs how these tools are deployed securely and effectively.


2. Medical District (Healthcare)


The Medical District ensures that personalized healthcare services are delivered through AI-driven insights and secure data management. Insurance Policy ensures that patients receive care seamlessly, whether in the physical world or the Metaverse.


3. Financial District (Banking)


The Financial District provides the capital, credit, and financial infrastructure needed to sustain the ecosystem. Credit Policy ensures financial transactions are secure, efficient, and equitable.


Together, these districts form a Product-Market Harmonious Symphony 🎵 — a meticulously orchestrated balance of innovation, care, and capital.


The Soul Card™ in Action


Picture this: A patient in Bronzeville needs a telehealth consultation. With a simple tap of their Soul Card™, they enter a virtual clinic staffed by AI-powered healthcare providers. The consultation is seamless, secure, and personalized to their medical history. Behind the scenes, the transaction flows through decentralized cloud infrastructure, powered by Nvidia GPUs and OpenAI GPT-4 Omni, secured by Apple iOS devices.


But it doesn’t stop there. The same Soul Card™ allows the patient to manage their health insurance, pay medical bills, and access educational resources — all in one place. The experience is frictionless, empowering, and deeply human.


This is more than convenience. It’s equity. It’s access. It’s empowerment.


The Faith-Driven Vision: Building the Kingdom


At the core of The Sir Roy G. Biv Foundation Trust lies a deeper purpose. This isn’t just about building a business; it’s about building a Kingdom — a vision of justice, peace, and prosperity aligned with divine principles.


The Foundation operates with a mission rooted in:


  • The Father’s Will: A commitment to righteousness and purpose.

  • The Son’s Obedience: A dedication to serving the community selflessly.

  • The Spirit’s Power: Harnessing innovation and technology to uplift humanity.


This faith-driven approach ensures that every innovation, every product, and every service is designed to serve people, not exploit them.


Renaissance: The Healthcare Metaverse™


In 1925, the Supreme Liberty Life Insurance building stood as a testament to Black entrepreneurship and resilience. In 2025, that same corner can become the epicenter of a digital renaissance. The Healthcare Metaverse™ reimagines Bronzeville not just as a historic neighborhood, but as a global hub of innovation.


This vision isn’t limited to Chicago. It can be replicated in communities worldwide, creating a network of empowered individuals, secure systems, and thriving economies.


The Future is Now


The vision of Seaway Bank & Trust Company, Supreme Liberty Life Insurance Company, and Johnson Publishing Company lives on through The Sir Roy G. Biv Foundation Trust. The Soul Card™ symbolizes a future where healthcare, finance, and technology serve humanity — a future where AI and people work together in harmony.


As we stand on the brink of 2025, this is more than a dream. It’s a call to action. A call to build a future that honors the past, empowers the present, and inspires the future.


The Healthcare Metaverse™ is coming. Are you ready to be a part of it?
