Yes, we do need money, 681 00:29:57,520 --> 00:30:01,040 Speaker 1: and I totally agree with that, but take for example, 682 00:30:01,360 --> 00:30:02,960 Speaker 1: a lot of folks that we have in the black 683 00:30:03,000 --> 00:30:05,280 Speaker 1: community that have money. If you don't know what to 684 00:30:05,360 --> 00:30:08,760 Speaker 1: do with the money, what does it matter. If we 685 00:30:08,800 --> 00:30:13,280 Speaker 1: don't understand that, the importance of rental properties, the importance 686 00:30:13,320 --> 00:30:16,280 Speaker 1: of life insurance, the importance of putting money in the 687 00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: stock market, what does it matter?

We have to 738 00:32:27,040 --> 00:32:29,880 Speaker 13: change that narrative as well. It can't just be black 739 00:32:29,920 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 13: business let's go support them. In my experience, I'm not 740 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:34,520 Speaker 13: speaking for all black businesses. 741 00:32:35,040 --> 00:32:38,280 Speaker 6: We have as black business owners. 742 00:32:38,040 --> 00:32:40,200 Speaker 8: Appreciate the customers that do support them. 743 00:32:40,720 --> 00:32:43,080 Speaker 6: And a lot of times, you know, they say people if. 744 00:32:42,920 --> 00:32:43,600 Speaker 8: You treat them bad. 745 00:32:43,640 --> 00:32:45,160 Speaker 6: They tell everybody to treat them good. 746 00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:46,040 Speaker 1: They don't tell. 747 00:32:45,920 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 6: Anybody, so all we hear about is the bad customers. 748 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:50,680 Speaker 8: So how do we change that narrative? 749 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 1: I would disagree with that there's bad customer services across 750 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:56,920 Speaker 1: the board. There's over sixty thousand businesses on my app, 751 00:32:57,480 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: and there's no way in the world that there's sixty 752 00:32:59,440 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: thousand places that have bad customer service. You may just 753 00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: need to find some other places to shop. 754 00:33:04,440 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 3: And Lisa, I do want to say this because I 755 00:33:07,440 --> 00:33:09,840 Speaker 3: do feel like there is this narrative right that black 756 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:12,520 Speaker 3: owned businesses aren't as professional, Like we hear it all 757 00:33:12,560 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 3: the time, but I want to say that a lot 758 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:17,240 Speaker 3: of times I can go into a business that's not 759 00:33:17,280 --> 00:33:19,680 Speaker 3: a black owned business and have a negative experience. 760 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:21,360 Speaker 2: But I feel like black owned. 761 00:33:21,160 --> 00:33:24,320 Speaker 3: Businesses are held to a different standard totally, because sometimes 762 00:33:24,320 --> 00:33:27,120 Speaker 3: we go to a white establishment or you know, something 763 00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 3: other and we don't expect to be treated We're like, 764 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:32,360 Speaker 3: oh my god, they were rude. But you know what, 765 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:34,480 Speaker 3: I'm gonna just be quiet and my my business. Everybody 766 00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 3: wants to come to this restaurant eat it. Yeah, I'm 767 00:33:36,840 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 3: just gonna eat it. 768 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:40,680 Speaker 1: Customer service is okay, the bathroom's dirty, we don't say 769 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,600 Speaker 1: nothing right, but the cd. 770 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:46,360 Speaker 12: I generally bad customer service is across the board. But 771 00:33:46,440 --> 00:33:48,160 Speaker 12: what you all are talking about, I heard you say 772 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:51,000 Speaker 12: that money in the black community will be dried up soon. 773 00:33:51,600 --> 00:33:53,960 Speaker 12: And we have to take that knowledge and we all 774 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 12: have to do better. We as the consumers do have 775 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 12: to support. 776 00:33:57,040 --> 00:34:00,080 Speaker 6: Yes, Yes, as a small business owner, we have to 777 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:01,760 Speaker 6: appreciate the people that do come. 778 00:34:02,000 --> 00:34:05,480 Speaker 1: And you know what, Lisa, oftentimes, unfortunately we as black people, 779 00:34:05,520 --> 00:34:08,800 Speaker 1: think that there needs to be these wild, sweeping, dramatic changes. 780 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: It's not true. Think about it. If we consciously thought 781 00:34:12,160 --> 00:34:14,120 Speaker 1: about where we ate lunch once a week, or if 782 00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,040 Speaker 1: we own a small business, when we order flowers, when 783 00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:20,000 Speaker 1: we order wine, we order cupcakes, you could do all 784 00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,200 Speaker 1: of that on black. But if we thought about it 785 00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:24,719 Speaker 1: and made an effort to buy a black on toothbrush. 786 00:34:24,800 --> 00:34:28,480 Speaker 1: There's dish washing detergent, there's laundry detergent, the things that 787 00:34:28,520 --> 00:34:31,160 Speaker 1: we normally do. There's cleaning supplies. But even if we 788 00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:33,919 Speaker 1: started to do those things and we were cognizant of it. 789 00:34:34,120 --> 00:34:35,880 Speaker 3: When you go to Target, when you go to the 790 00:34:35,920 --> 00:34:38,440 Speaker 3: supermarket and you're like, you know what this is Patty 791 00:34:38,480 --> 00:34:39,320 Speaker 3: Labelle's brand. 792 00:34:39,400 --> 00:34:41,520 Speaker 2: Yes, this is Angela's coffee uplifts people? 793 00:34:41,600 --> 00:34:44,279 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, well the coffee like Angela has coffee.
