Please see my #116.
Are you saying black people should shun white businesses even if they get the best value there ?
Should my company shun a black service provider even if we know they're the best in town ? After all, we're majority white, although we do have a goodly number of hispanic, asian and black employees.
We pride ourselves on being the best - which has nothing to do with color.
Perhaps you need to listen to a little '60s music - like Sly and the Family Stone.

Just so you know ;-)
I think they should do what they want --- however other groups have done much more to "help" their own group. You will certainly see Mexicans shunning non-Mexican businesses, and I've seen ethnic groups support one of their own, you see them hiring their own but you can't really accuse blacks of doing that too much. Sometimes I think they should do it what the others do --- for example in some neighborhoods, they have been angry at the Korean immigrants who own the stores and who definitely have an inclination to hire only other Korean immigrants --- but you'll see the blacks shopping there -- even though they face discrimination.
