    It's high time Africans started buying blacks and leaving our money in the black community. All these foreign designers don't employ no black person. Infact, they don't give a fuck about us, yet we keep giving them our money and making them rich at our expense. Go to any of them stores overseas, you will never find a black employee. What the fuck is wrong with our people?? We really need to wake up as a people. You want to brag that you are wearing Gucci, Jimmy Choo, Dolce & Gabbana and Balenciaga shit huh? Like say una no no say na person papa name be that? Don't Africans have a brand, what happened to Agbani design and the rest of them? The earlier we start patronizing black businesses that will in-turn enrich the black owners, lead to employment of our black people and ultimately help lift the black race out of poverty, the better for us. Otherwise, we are finished as a people.

    Awoken Soul...you are sadly still asleep. Do we not patronize "Black oil?"...Did it enrich the black owners? YES...Did it lead to the employment of our black people? YES but that can still be argued...Has it ultimately helped lift the black race out of poverty? NO...it instead created a new oppressor. The world is not divided between black and white, it is divided between rich and poor. Rich white people don't give a flying fuck about poor white people and trust me rich white people will sit at the table with rich black people any damn day. Us? us? there is no "Us". We need to wake up as a people? abeg you need to sit the fuck down and shut the fuck up as a person. Awoken soul my left nut
