US BLACK BUSINESS NETWORK

Dothan, AL

    • Mission

    My name is Netesha. I am the founder and CEO of the US Black Business Network (the Network) which is a 501(c)3. Why does the Network exist: I believe that there is no greater gift for our children, families and communities than our support for their right to self-determination. Those who do not want organized, influential, wealthy African American Communities, perpetuate social, political and economic systems that restrict our right to self-determination. Important research published by McKinsey and Company - June 2021 stated: Black households still spend less than white households, and current growth rates would not erase this disparity for 100 years in the absence of faster gains in wages and wealth. I do not think that waiting another 100 years for social and economic justice is reasonable, do you?

    About Us

    What we do:

    We see our role as Servant Leaders who sit at your table listening to and supporting individuals, families and communities who want to work together to increase intergenerational wealth and community cohesion. The Network is focusing on one root causes rather than ameliorating the symptoms.

    Progress to date:

    The Network was granted 501(c)3 status in Jul 2024 We are mindful that faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase. Nevertheless, in February 2025, we established a project called shop Black shop local that encourages shoppers to shop at local Black owned businesses. This included setting up a website resource that lists over 100 businesses and allows shoppers to participate in research that provides empirical evidence about the effectiveness of the project.
