About Black Economics -
Examining Wealth and Poverty, and the general Economic Status
of black people around the world
Black Economics website – A focus on economic development within the African diaspora in America, UK, Africa, Caribbean, Brazil, France and Holland. It is our opinion that given the talent, brain-power and wealth of resources within the black world, our progress as a race can be accelerated. We do not subscribe to the concept that we are continually at the bottom of the pile. Great wealth is not the preserve of the white man. There are great things happening around the world in black communities, and we want to use this site to demonstrate this and inspire others to attain greater things.

Main aims of this website:
1) To showcase good black businesses. Tell the stories of business
owners who understand the concept of sales – however it is done,
whatever the commodity or service, and to whomever they can sell to.
2) To showcase top black professionals, who thrive in the corporate world.
3) To encourage more black people to start businesses - where real wealth can be attained. Create a product or a service, rather than be perpetual consumers.
4) To urge people to be aware of black businesses around them, and where possible - encourage the business owner - by becoming customers or clients of those black businesses.
5) To urge people of means, to invest in black businesses, even if they will not want to run those business themselves. Get to know the prospective business partner until there is trust, and use contacts and corporate knowledge to accelerate the growth.

This website was inspired by the book "Black
Economics" by Jawanza Kunjufu
The book is a micro and macro-analysis of economic conditions in the
black community which explores:
a) why African Americans earn only 61 percent of white American income,
b) why many African Americans prefer to maintain a 'good job' rather
than own and operate their own businesses, and
c) why African American consumers in the USA only spend 3 percent of
their one trillion dollars in black businesses.
