We Need Our Own Silicon Valley.

[Jhoon]

U a fronting as nurse, that had nothing to do with what he posted. It was about young blacks talking about silicon valley, financing, and being the best of the best and how discrimination plays a part vs other minorities.

Resources are finite. It's really infinite but the general concensus that it is limited.

Stop listening to these pessimistic brehs.

Connect some people, let them know let they know your product is out there. Your dream only goes as far as you work

we cant even have our own genre of music

Ever heard of Gospel?


OP, lets make Lagos, Nigeria our Silicon Valley

I got no problem with this but blacks are taking an idea and not understanding it. People don't really grasp on what it is to get their own sector and own their business. If blacks were really sincere do something in the US they wouldn't talk about it on the internet and get proactive. In simple terms , becoming more independent is ideal but its easier said than done.

Im seeing blacks talk about this but many are not living by it.

the harsh realities of the coli militant submitting to a wealthy black c00n he's dissing

I like OPs thinking, but you should see what is already established, don't always have to start things from scratch. Urban Tech Weekend goes to a different city every year and has blacks in technology coming together, so check this network here: https://www.blacksintechnology.net/nbitlo-conference-call-for-presenters/

Yeah. It is a trippy. There is a whole continent of folks that looks like us, ready to get busy on a bunch of levels.

Black people in America could magically get our shyt together and become a well oiled machine and it still wouldnt matter because we're in a country that was built by whites for whites.

There's a much higher ceiling in Africa than there is in the States

 

[Detroit Wave]

why start in dc when land/property is cheaper in Detroit?

 

[Reece]

If I had Jay-Z's money, I would start a Y Combinator for blacks and hispanics TOMORROW

You got the NewMe Accelerator doing big things but, there needs to be more.

Blacks can chase dreams of being rappers but, white people becoming billionaires in 4 years off of tech apps.

Got this idea I been developing for a minute now. Imma get mine
