The new Miss USA is a 26 year old African American woman from Texas, name Crystle Stewart. The thing that stands out about this girl is that she in an entrepreneur, that runs a party-planning and motivational speaking company. Big-ups to African American women becoming entreprenurs. I guess the contestants are more than just pretty faces!
SideBar:
Question: Can you name more than five black businesses that you personally support?
Personally I can't and think that it is ashame that the majority of African America's can not. There was a time when African Americans supported their own businesses, had their own Wall Street and attended their own schools. It is perfectly ok that we have become intergrated instead of segegated, but has it forced us to not support our own? The black dollar leaves the community faster than it comes in. Doesn't anyone else see this as an issue? I make a pledge to support more black owned businesses and help them Keep up with the Huxtables...
