Ain’t nobody stopping blacks from building wrwaltg

I hear that, the spirit of socio-economic black empowerment of these great souls are with us today. There are many new black entrepreneurs emerging everyday and there are countless microcosms of black business districts that are serving as a blueprint for what we need to be doing en masse. The Grid in Chicago showcases Auburn Gresham, Bronzeville, and South Shore where real successful black entrepreneurship is growing and thriving. There are nice beautiful homes in these places full of black homeowners, black professionals, and black business owners. But there needs to be more. We have no black equivalent of Apple or Microsoft. We have no black version of IBM, CISCO SYSTEMS, SONY, T MOBILE, AT&T, WAL MART, HOME DEPOT, SEARS, OR COSTCO. THESE ARE. GLOBAL CORPORATIONS THAT COMPETE GLOBALLY WITH BUSINESSES IN CHINA AND JAPAN. WE GOT ABOUT 28 BLACK OWNED BANKS AND CREDIT UNIONS. 100 YEARS AGO WE HAD 130. We don’t have major distribution networks for black owned business products. We have 15000 black owned businesses in America that are making in the tens of millions and beyond, a small handful of black billion dollar businesses. We have tons of small, but successful black owned businesses that are doing well and their revenues are growing, but collectively overall, black owned businesses are not competitive globally. Black owned businesses do contribute heavily to the U.S. Economy without a doubt but more needs to be, much more.
