Hiding While Black-Owned: Business Savvy or Selling Out?

from Mental Dialogue

At a time when the Black community is starving for more entrepreneurs, should Blacks that go into business proudly display the fact that they are a Black-owned business; or is it better to hide all evidence of being Black-owned in order to prosper?   We bring in special guest LANEE JAVET, a business owner who proudly displays the fact that she is a Black-owned business and specializes in helping other Black businesses be successful; as well as special guest DUANE DRAUGHON, successful entrepreneur who was able to bill over $6 million dollars in a former business servicing mostly white clientel by hiding the fact he was the owner of the company.  SHOULD BLACK BUSINESS OWNERS HAVE TO HIDE THEIR RACE?  Don't miss this show as our guests gives us the skinny on owning business in America as a Black woman or a Black man. MENTAL DIALOGUE asking the questions America's afraid to ask.  "ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU THINK"
