I'll go out on a limb here and say that it seems like they are not saying they want to discriminate, but instead encourage supporting black businesses. It follows the idea that I think Booker T. Washington or MLK Jr. stated (can't remember), that African Americans cannot change the minds and attitudes of whites, but must change their own attitudes.
As long as there is no discrimination, I see no issue with encouraging black businesses, in fact, it's a good idea. -------------------- "There is a level of cowardice lower than that of the conformist: that of the fashionable non-conformist." |
