Spending in the black community
Like many, you may desire to spend all of your money in the black community. Let's face facts. It would be nearly impossible to achieve this goal. Consider that manufacturing and supply chains are rarely operated by African Americans. Consider that much of the merchandise available in America comes from outside the country. In these modern times you would be hard pressed to even spend all of your money in the larger white community. The best option available for spending money in the African American community is to spend with online black owned businesses. In case you have not noticed, retail sales are quickly migrating online. Speaking as a native born African American, I would much rather (and I do) buy products directly from an average white citizen's website than at the big chain sites. At least that way I know the money is passing through the hands of another citizen first. Beyond that, I really desire to spend money with other African Americans.
There is a quiet (not hidden) movement taking place. If you have not heard of the Empowerment Experiment you need to check it out. I will not give any details. Also, there are a number of Black owned websites that encourage, allow and make it possible to spend with African Americans from coast to coast. A favorite site is Blackbuying.com. This website was built to aid African Americans in spending and earning inside our community. It's an up and coming site that boasts a number of common products. It could just as easily be named Americanbuying.com. The distinction is that it is black owned.
Try typing "black businesses" into a search engine. You may be disappointed with the search results. Then again you may not be disappointed. One of the most difficult achievements for website operators is to draw traffic to their sites. Try typing "black businesses" into a search engine. If you operate or want to operate an online business in the black community, you may find that there is plenty of room at the top of the listings for your business. Visit Blackbuying.com to find information on starting your own business. Spending money in the black community is really cool. Being black and providing business services to all communities is priceless.
