How has social media influenced the visibility of African-American businesses in the 21st century? AlJen23 (talk) 22:17, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

When did African-American owned businesses receive more validity? AlJen23 (talk) 22:21, 3 November 2019 (UTC)[reply]

There is not one citation in the first four paragraphs of this article. There is no way to verify that any part of the introduction of this article is from reliable sources and it does not make clear what this article is in reference too. Is this article about the history of African American businesses? Does not the history of African American businesses begin in both Africa and the Americas? Would not African American history books serve as a good source of information about African American businesses?

This statement is not supported by any sources. There were many black owned businesses that were not based in music and sports such as black owned banks and farms that were around long before the 21st century. — Preceding unsigned comment added by NmuoMmiri (talk • contribs) 22:16, 18 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

The last sentence of the 1st paragraph of the section "The 21st Century" is ❝The internet enabled black-owned businesses such as McBride Sisters Wine Company to become visible and reach a larger market than would have been possible pre-internet.❞ this seems like an advertisement for this company which, upon cursory glance does not owe its success to online marketing nor is it an early example of a black owned Business being successful for online activity, according to the linked article only first saw large scale success in 2020…. 2600:6C56:6DF0:8150:B936:A803:2B31:EC16 (talk) 11:54, 11 March 2023 (UTC) garymericanoaintgotawikiaccount[reply]
