Monetizing the pro-Black banner was detrimental to the Black Power/Black Pride movements of the 60's, 70's, 80's, and early 90's.
In the past, there honestly was a rising wave of Black pride. However, people have figured out that you can get paid if you call yourself a member of the conscious community and scream "white supremacy" on YouTube. When the Hotep Hustle started paying big money, the actual work stopped. As a result, we don't have a real Black Power/consciousness movement anymore. We just have a bunch of people online grifting and selling dreams.
