Why A Black-Owned Business Directory?
Much attention and focus has been given to social equality for the past 60 years in our country. Although social justice is very important, it is not as crucial to leveling the playing field for Black people in America as economic justice.
Greenwood Ave was born out of a necessity to empower the Black community by strengthening our economic base. Inspired by the Black Wallstreets in America (not just in Greenwood, Tulsa, OK but in various cities across the country), this platform encourages the practice of group economics which simply means circulating our Black dollar within our Black community.
