This article makes creating a Startup sound like a cake walk. Side note: Not one of these was a Black Startup. I can’t wait to begin reading about more success stories like this that feature the success of Black Startups. I think American Express Open Forum should make it a point to seek them out. They are aware of the need, they recently blogged about the CNN Black in America: The New Promised Land, Silicon Valley report asking “Is Silicone Valley A Racist Community?”. If you are in a position to help AMEX show us how you intend to support Black Tech Businesses. Please don’t ask questions we already know the answers too. Instead, be part of the solution, put your money where your mouth is!
