Stop it breh. I don't just complain about white supremacy. I'm a member of a bunch of Atlanta based black organizations. I donate my time to them, and I donate money.

Doing it for a week won't make a difference if y'all come right back next week and give them all of your money. All they've learned is black people aren't going anywhere.

If you want to fight white supremacy, look around your community and see what businesses are lacking that you can start, and open it up as soon as you can. Invest back into your same community to address the needs of black folks there. Get involved in your local political office and endorse/financially back candidates who have the best interest of black people in mind. Join a black based organization in your community and take on a leadership position.

There's a million one things we can do that we would be a lot more effective than a one day black out that ends with us still giving our money right back to white people.

For one we can start with putting our money into a black bank, that way when one of us decides to get a business loan, we're less likely to face discrimination from white underwriters.
I live in Atlanta, drop them gems, breh.

we need grocery stores and gas stations. :snoop: besides bills, you cant escape these two expenses.

Breh, I think we should be investing in those areas in the south with an abundance of Black people. Grocery stores start with making the food, gas stations start with Black people that got access to oil(Nigerians, Angolans, South Sudanese when they get it together). The best we can do now is franchises, but if we wanna make our dollar truly strong we gotta be involved on all levels of economics.

If you using the internet, that kinda defeats the purpouse.

Or watch an ad on a video.

or listen to music on Pandora or Spotify.

Actually watching TV would count against that too.

Ever considered opening up one?

bruh, i aint rich, dammit :damn:

but actually i did look into owning a small gas station in a shytty part of southern california, and the price was just shy of 1.5 million. thats the importance of networks, man. one dude with 200-300k cant do shyt but 4-5 men with 200-300k can get the job done.

and truthfully, when it comes to business, i suck at it. but i'd love to take that risk to invest in a black owned grocery mart.

Growing up one of my dad's business was doing importing/exporting of fruits and vegetables. He also had a bodega under our building too. He also had a bunch of farms in Jamaica now that I think about it :ohhh:

shyts wild, growing up I used to think his ass was crazy but now I'm like dudes a genius :wow:
