Yes, Pardon me if I wanted to comment on something you said. I thought it was allowed.

Who owns the store's I used to buy my hair products in? I don't know who Sam Walton sold it to, but I bet they are white. Since my school is in a very white and somewhat rural town, that's the ONLY store that sells hair care products for blacks. I don't have many options. I buy my hair products online from www.carolsdaughter.com (black owned).

My point was, most of us HAVE to shop in white owned stores like Giant Foods, Target, Wal-Mart, Sallys, and Safeway because they don't have the privledge of having a black owned store in their area. My mother and father live in a BLACK area and we don't have any black beauty store owners. So to help even things out, the least we can do is buy items from black owned company's so we are putting some of the money back into our own communities...where it should be. People like Dudley's give scholarships to young black people so they can go to college. You'll never see Paul Mitchell doing that.
