Couldn't possiby be that the SBA is throwing money their way, could it?

Sure, the SBA and its state and local equivalents have some assistance, financing and contracts available to Black/minority entrepreneurs that Whites cannot access. The truth is, though, it's not a lot, requires more red tape than it's worth much of the time, and provides no guarantee of long-term success. Therefore, most Black businesses get started and rolling without such help. There's no way in the world someone Black should start a business just because they can get goodies from Uncle Sugar. As a consultant to almost exclusively Black-owned businesses, I'd never advise doing that in a million years- it simply doesn't work that way, no matter how much the "angry white male" whiners think it does.
