Habari Gani YAll?! Today we light the second RED candle in honor of UJAMAA (Cooperative Economics). Shortly stated INVEST IN BUSINESSES THAT INVEST IN YOU but as an entrepreneur, myself, I would like to add the following: 1. Give Black Businesses a chance to service you ...without bias. Many of us are trying to get off our feet and need your business to survive. 2. Stop expecting something for free or trying to get the hook up. These businesses can not pay bills with exposure or by constantly working in a deficit. Allow us to OFFER our services discounted or free. Think about it this way, how would you feel if someone came to your job and asked you to work for free or at half your pay rate. 3. Hold us accountable. We only get better with your honest feedback. If you tell the world but not us, this does not help us get better and grow our businesses. 4. To those who own businesses - re-invest in the people who invest in you. Charge your worth but do not gauge your patrons. Work to earn their business. So the song that I have identified for today is I Need A Dollar by Aloe Blacc youtu.be/nFZP8zQ5kzk
