Circulating the Black Dollar and Building the Community
Answer this: who is getting your money? When we spend our dollars at big-box stores, we're handing them billions in revenue annually. Meanwhile, our people continue to lose TRILLIONS in Black wealth, a reality that’s fueled by systemic racism. What would happen, though, if our people stopped spending money outside of the community?
