POPLIFE: does it make a difference to you that the Motions brand, has a Black Marketing Manager and a Black R&D staff.? The reason that Motions comes in Purple and Gold packaging is that the man who created and introduced that product line is an Omega. His whole marketing staff and research and devolopment staff is Black. If Motions fails, alot of brothers and sisters go down too. One of his NY area product managers is an AKA that I know. Also, alot of those products that you listed are former Johnson & Johnson (Americas largest Black company) products which were recently sold to a white owned company. If people stop using a product that they grew up on because of an ownership change rather than poor quality, is an individual decision. Lastly, it is very small-minded to hate on Koreans who are living the American dream. The stores, cleaners, laundromats, fruit stands, etc. can just as easily be own by those within the community. My old neighborhood has seen the Koreans move out only to be replaced by immigrant Jamaicans and Haitians and not neighborhood people . Your father did the right thing. Market your product well and give the people what they want and how they want it. No need to hate on anyone else trying to make a living. I am pro-Black too, but not at the expense of hating others for their success and hard work.
