If your business caters specifically to Black Folks in some way, then yes advertise as a Black Owned Business.

If the goal is to make money, from as many people as possible, then don't.

Racism is a real issue for Black Business owners.
Some people will go out of there way to mess your business up, cause they hate Black Folks.

We make up 14% of the population. You want a greater chance of success, you advertise your business to bulk of the population not a small segment of it. Placing the Black owned tag on your business is akin to only advertising to Black people. It sounds good, feels good, but in the end you could do far more for our people getting money from outside of our community and then reinvesting it in our community than you will just recycling money within our community.

“The world doesn’t give a damn about your skin color“ oh really now? So there wasn’t laws put in effect to keep us at a disadvantage, just because our skin color? So we don’t get harassed, discriminated against and stereotyped based on our skin color?

Being black owned don't mean other muthafukaz ain't gonna come in your business.
It makes Alotta craccaz feel good about themselves that they patronized a business owned by blackees.

But stop worrying about whether u should label yourself black owned or not.
Worry about giving good service and not overcharging MFers cause you Ignant b*stards ain't sht

However no, you should not advertise yourself as black, be smart. Understand the world you are living in

Interesting energy this thread has so far. Sounds like these black business owners dont need benefits for being black business owners then. This is often the type of energy recipricoted by these black businesses.

Tried to tell yall about these so called black business owners. Usually that tag is just bait to attract black people,and make us feel good about being overcharged for a good cause. Meanwhile they take all that money from black people, and spend it all with the European.

Than you have the ones who dont even pretend like the lady in the OP. Yes black customers can be problematic but so are so called "black businesses" in many instances. Plus theres no such thing at the end of the day. The European owns those businesses,and all that money goes back to the banks that fund our oppression.

Save your money with whoever you can,and prepare to leave the country:respect:

my point has nothing to do with what your post breh.

Im thinking strategically.

sometimes, depending on the industry you have to know how to maneuver anglo saxon dominated economic systems.


sometimes being low key as a black business gets you customers you never would have being open.


her justification was child like c00n babble and I will never validate c00n or anti black justifications just because the end goal is a net positive. Because long term it will corrupt the esteem of your people and destroy any mental dexterity you possess.
