Again, this is nice but I knew about the list of banks and the other list is just restaurants. We need places to buy the basics and conduct business, not restaurants. I'm not knocking anything listed here, I'm just trying to make a point. Like, for real, where's our grocery store chain?

we should keep adding on
Good point, but don't underestimate the restaurant industry as a potential for growth.

- $709.2 billion: Restaurant industry sales.
- 3.8%: Restaurant industry sales increase in nominal terms.
- 1.5%: Restaurant industry sales increase in real (inflation-adjusted) terms.
- 1 million: Restaurant locations in the United States.
- 4%: Restaurant industry sales share of the U.S. gross domestic product.
- $1.9 billion: Restaurant industry sales on a typical day.
- 14 million: Restaurant industry employees.
- 1.7 million: New restaurant jobs created by the year 2025.
- 10%: Restaurant workforce as part of the overall U.S. workforce.
- 47%: Restaurant industry share of the food dollar.
- Nine in 10: Restaurant managers who started at entry level.
- Eight in 10: Restaurant owners who started their industry careers in entry-level positions.
- Nine in 10: Restaurants with fewer than 50 employees.
- Seven in 10: Restaurants that are single-unit operations.
The restaurant industry generates billions of dollars and is projecting growth. We gotta crawl before we walk. If we practiced cooperative economics then the thriving restaurants will have the resources to invest and work towards building other important businesses such as grocery stores, laundry mats, beauty stores, etc. let's corner the markets we know best and use that money to branch off.

Agree, but we need to be able to only patronize black businesses, or at least have a black alternative available. I just wish we were at the point where we can be completely be independent. I guess we're working for our kids to have the ideal, but GAWDDAMN IT I hate giving money over to others and watching them prosper.
That video had me all
until he was like, "you're in the wrong place." Black-owned banks are getting bought out too. We have to hold on to what we have.
