      Who you been hanging around? I've gone to such events since my community college days and none has been facilitated by whites. Don't get this twisted. And get in with the right folks. We're all over. Peace out! Or hit me up if you need help finding such events.

    I'm listening to the part where the host is talking about the shampoo versus the story. I have heard advice from both sides that people become emotionally invested in the story behind the brand, but then there are other people who just want the results. I think there is a fine line between the two or maybe it depends on your customer base? Some people value authenticity, other people just want to know is the product will help solve their problems

      Nothing wrong with Black people talking Black business for Black people. They aren't "targeting" only Black patrons. You sell to anyone! duh. They are just talking about Black owned businesses...there is nothing inherently wrong with that. Every group does it....seriously. No WHITES don''t do it in public, and by name, cause they don't have to do it...
