Harry Watley const. contractor/ retired at self Hello Mr. Page, You said this, “The solutions for economic and community empowerment.In order to enhance Black economic development, we need families, churches, community organizations, and the media to accent and reiforce Black business owners….” Your comment is absolutely not true. Our permanent solution is that Black Americans must desire to become a sovereign people or have complete independence on a portion of this continent that we could call our very own country with borders to pursue life, liberty, happiness and prosperity in our own way. When this happens all of our old and present problems will evaporate, am I right. Tell me what you think. Tuesday, March 16th 2010 at 9:57AM

Rev. Robert Page Univ of Michigan-Ann Arbor class of 1982 Love you bro. but you are absolutely not true. Let us become a nation within a nation, in the African American community estimated income is $280 billion to $300 billion. This places the black community as the ninth wealtiest nation/colony in the world.Unfortunately., there is a tremendous balance of payment problem in the black community because 93 percent of our income is spent outside of the community. Independence right, let look at how we spent the $280 billion in the 90's, 12 billion on Auto Repair/Garage Service, 12 billion on eating out, 20 billion on car, 18 billion on on foreigners in our community I could on and on like the church who get 7billion dollars every years and menbers are being put out. Asians and Arabs come off a boat, open up stores in the heart of the black community. Ok 1st let start by become a strong black community. Tuesday, March 16th 2010 at 8:45PM

Harry Watley const. contractor/ retired at self Hello Mr. Page, You said this, “Let us become a nation within a nation,…..” Mr. Page there is no such concept as a nation within a nation. It is not that a nation could be in another nation. Do you know why it is not a rational concept? Please tell me why it is not a rational concept. Shortly, Black Americans who are a new breed or race of people that has emerged out of the ashes of slavery will inherit a portion of this continent that we will call our very own country with borders to pursue life, liberty, happiness and prosperity in our own way. Consequentially, we are going to be sophisticated thinkers. Suppose I ask you this question. Do you know the story of Moses and the Children of Israel when they were in bondage and slavery in Egypt? Do you think it would have been feasible for Moses and the Children of Israel to believe that they could be a nation of Israelites within the nation of Egypt and the Egyptian people? Tell me what you think. Tuesday, March 16th 2010 at 9:37PM

Dorothy Johnson Grambling State University class of 1975 I am in agreement with you Mr Page. There is no excuse for us not to have and support our own businesses. Friday, March 19th 2010 at 6:25AM

Harry Watley const. contractor/ retired at self Hello Dorothy, Because you said this, “There is no excuse for us not to have and support our own businesses.” I am led to ask you if you understand the difference is of having a business versus having your own economy. So, what are the differences? I am for Black Americans having our own economy, which is superior to supporting our own businesses, am I right. You will understand better what I am saying if you know the differences of having your own economy, okay. So, how is it possible that you could have your own economy? Tell me what you think.
