US Black Business Network

Join us in Creating Change! The US Black Business Network is actively working to bridge the racial wealth gap through community-led financial activism. This work includes a Shop Black Shop Local pilot project. I founded the US Black Business Network (USBBN) on a core belief: there is no greater gift for our community than the right to self-determination through financial activism. Why? Because research from McKinsey & Company warns that without accelerated wealth gains, the racial wealth gap could endure for another 100 years. We refuse to wait. By acting as a unified community, we can claim the intergenerational wealth that is rightfully ours through expanded access to business ownership, housing, and higher education. Our pilot project in Mobile, AL Shop Black Shop Local has proven that this model works. Through this initiative, we have: Identified how to increase and sustain support for local Black-owned businesses. Generated enthusiastic community support and participation. Developed a scalable model to help other communities build wealth. To date, over 150 Mobile residents have actively supported this project through local purchases and engagement. Currently, our nonprofit is operated entirely by volunteers. Your support will ensure that we can continue developing this innovative path toward economic equity. Join us in making self-determination a reality. Your support is appreciated. Netesha Pendleton, Founder US Black Business Network
