So you take issue that a bank or investment firm is black owned?
Again, please explain why the black ownership of the bank is so disturbing to you. Are you also disturbed because Banco Popular is Hispanic owned? Is it disturbing that East West Bank is Asian owned?
I don't care the race of who owns a bank or business , just if they do good business and are honest .
I'm not so clanish .
Just because an owner is black , white , Hispanic , Asian , Muslim etc etc doesn't mean they are good or bad.
Do you ??
"White banks " ? are there any banks that call themselves white banks?
Also did you know the big banks have had black execs and CEOS also Hispanic and Asian Execs too ?
Also the shares of these companies are publicly owned , by all races and ethnicities
How can you call them " white banks"?
Banks care about your income and credit score . They run it through a computer . The color they care about is Green .
But don't the same people telling blacks to fix their communities (places they won't even step foot in, but yet know so much about) have a problem when blacks try to successfully build ecomically. Why is there such a problem?
You're exactly right! In a certain group's eyes we're damned if we do and damned if we don't..
Like I said I haven't seen any press releases or Asian or Hispanic celebrities calling for people to move money from " white owned banks" to Hispanic or Asian banks
That's the difference . If you find it , please post it . Thanks
When I moved to a place where Asians are everywhere, and more numerous than either blacks or Hispanics, I discovered something that never occurs to people who live where there are few Asians.
Asians DO heavily patronize Asian-owned businesses. It is extremely uncommon to see an Asian in a typical corporate supermarket. Since everyone has to eat, Asians are shopping SOMEWHERE, and there are a number of Asian grocers serving the market, including an Asian supermarket in an Asian mall.
There are also many small Hispanic markets, which are specialized and thus better able to serve their market - the 'international' food aisle at the corporate supermarket just doesn't cut it.
People can't put their money where they want , in a bank or in a shoe box or under the mattress .
Just saying its silly to say a bank is good because of the race of the owner (s) that's all.
I guess we just don't agree
I asked the question ..
"because an owner is black , white , Hispanic , Asian , Muslim etc etc doesn't mean they are good or bad.
Do you ??"
Maybe the blacks can reject the whites money for all the government benefits? I mean if they want to separate their money lets separate the tax base as well.
"Whites money"?
You think other races don't pay taxes in this country?
So when Black people do the very thing you cry babies continuously cry about, building their own economic base to improve their own communities, you still cry. Look we understand we are fascinating people but please go find another minority to obsess over.
As a white conservative male I see no problem with this. Take care of your people, keep your money in your neighborhood, become less dependent on the system. Be more free thinking ect.
other races fully don't do that, this is the point.
Asians come off as the model minority but a lot of Asians really only spend money in their community. I read something that it's take 28 days for Asian money to leave the Asian community whiles blacks it takes 6 days.
If blacks started boycotting Walmart for a black owned version, it would have financial repercussions on Walmart as a hole so I understand why people are against the idea.
But the only way for blacks to get respected as a whole is to build up their economic base and let their money speak for them, only then will issues stop happening.
it's a good idea that all blacks really need to consider, also create ideas for businesses which leads to more blacks finding jobs.
"US" versus "THEM"right ? This mentality is a losing one .
So you have NO problem with Latinos banking at BancoPopular, BBVA?
And you have NO problem with Asians banking with Cathay Bank, East West Bank?
.
Makes sense.
