The official blm account also endorses this.

Time to:
#BuildBlack - Support Black-led-Black-serving organizations.
#BuyBlack - Skip the Black Friday sales and buy exclusively from Black-owned businesses.
#BankBlack - Move your money out of white-corporate banks that finance our oppression and open accounts with Black-owned banks.
White-supremacist-capitalism uses policing to protect profits and steal Black lifeincluding the lives of #JohnCrawford, #StevenTaylor, #RedelJones, #YuvetteHenderson, #AlbertRamonDorsey, #DennisToddRogers & #SkyYoung.
Lets use every tool in our toolboxincluding our dollarsto end white-supremacist-capitalism.

Asking people to support black owned buisinesses is okay I think but asking people to boycott so called "white businesses" isnt.

I disagree. white businesses don't care about black lives unless they can market off of it. Plus you're not damaging property, so why get mad? This is literally what the right claims to want.

Black Xmas.

Do you think it's a good idea to choose where you shop based on the skin color of shop/business owners?
What about Latinx stores and Asian-owned stores?

I would think if they said don't buy white, everyone else is ok

. Invest in black people by divesting from your Wall Street bank. #BankBlack today! Chase, Citibank, Wells Fargo, Bank of America and other behemoths might provide some relative convenience, but strong black banks can be the foundation for a movement away from our marginalization and towards liberation and self determination.

You know, if it means telling BoA and Wells Fargo to go fuck themselves I think I can support this movement. :P

You seem to care enough to spread lies and misinformation, as well as go on a tangent about the right in a topic that isn't about the right. Your posts read like sheer panic.

What happens to you if you just say something sensible and condemn blatant racism?

It's actually good to hold people "on your side" accountable and to have standards.

I wanna take this chance to reiterate what I said about older black people.

If you see a really old black person, you should be aware that they lived in a very real nightmare. And they didn't have smart phones or anything like that. The paper wouldn't tell their story. The radio wouldn't tell their story. Many are old enough to remember the victory of everyone getting to vote fair & square. Thats huge

Im kinda skimming the topic here

But

Whats the problem? If a group of people want to only buy from black-owned stores let them?

How is this any different than people not buying things that are outsourced?

Help the disadvantaged and neglected group by not buying from the majority.

Hell, some people refuse to buy from giants like WalMart for a similar reason.

I know some of yall foam at the mouth once blm is mentioned. And tbh, a few posts in here are thinly veiled racism.

But what is the problem exactly?

Would never work. Americans shop crazy around Xmas season, does not even matter if they're Christian or not (commercialism coopted the holiday decades ago). Sales are sales, people pressure each other into any excuse to give gifts because it looks like everyone else is getting some, etc. Politics takes a back seat for a lot of holiday shoppers in the U.S. Most do not give a shit what "race" a company supposedly represents. And even if some did, they would just lie about where they purchased the products from anyway...

Go go capitalism!

I'm sick of being called racist for thinking black lives matter too.
