The Black Informant

African-American culture, news commentary, politics

This is how Black folks stay successful in business

This is not a earth-shattering quote, but it certainly makes the point that I try to make here on this site every day.

“…Wally Amos, the founder of Famous Amos cookies. “I knew there were people who would not buy my cookies because I am black,” says Mr. Amos, who started his company (which is now owned by Kellogg) in 1975. “But that was not my problem; it was theirs. To me anybody with a mouth was a potential customer.” (source)
