It’s clear that supporting black entrepreneurs and business is important: business ownership is the greatest equalizer in wealth disparity. The three primary obstacles facing these entrepreneurs are the wealth gap, the credit gap, and the trust gap, which often work hand in hand to disenfranchise Black entrepreneurs and keep their businesses from reaching maturity. Many black businesses are also small businesses, which usually hire from the communities they serve and strengthen the communities that often need it. Entrepreneurship must be nurtured and supported because it’s the path to change that can transform an entire community.
