Moving The Needle For Black Wealth: The Urgent Call for Corporate Accountability

(By Bobby R. Henry, Sr., Publisher) As a dedicated Black publisher, I recognize the undeniable influence of our community's purchasing power.

Our spending should catalyze transformation, reflecting our values and culture. Corporate gestures toward diversity often overlook grassroots initiatives. It’s time for genuine partnerships with Black-owned media and local organizations. Let’s demand accountability and support businesses that truly invest in our communities, ensuring our economic power fosters justice and lasting change.
