Their wealth usually ends up in the hands of whites or nonblacks. Jimi Hendrix, Lou Rawls, Don Cornelius just to name a few.

Get out of here with your negativity, I said it before, you guys really go overboard with the "own your own business" thing

You'd think every single person(white or not) owned a business, most people are waking up and going to work just like everybody else. You overboard militants have a superiority/black inferiority complex. How about you make a positive contribution to the thread?

Trevor Edwards - President of NIKE Brand. $970,000/year:Graduate degree obtained.

Two off the top that I know of....

successful stories are great and all , but I don't know I thinking a system that can make millions of blacks or the masses successful rather than like celebrities or like people there or here . Like a system were the average brahs from really poor backgrounds can raise up in other fields to the highest level with consistency and alot rather than in just sports or entertainment
