While at the same time telling white people you don’t deserve the perks that they get to enjoy strictly because you are white and they are of color. How are these programs not racist?

They are racist. Society has a blind eye to it though because it calling that racism out would not fit current agendas and narratives.

Society only thinks it’s bad when white people are racist in other words.

Irrelevant. The Civil Rights Act covers private businesses as well as public.

Interesting how some folks can’t stand in their own and need special privileges.

We complain all the time about blacks investing in their own communities, but when they do we yell racism.

Why is this such a problem? If this is funded by private equity and will help the community who truthfully gives a shite.

You can promote it all you want. Once everyone knows it’s all black owned and subsidized by us they will not exist as a company. No one will buy their product. You cannot make people buy garbage.

I read the above sentence in my head from their website and I replaced the word "black" with "white". It was an interesting exercise....

GNO is the chamber right or is that a government funded NGO?

If yes to either one, they are using taxpayers or other non Black business owners to fund it.

Gee, I wonder why white folks flee New Orleans? Even white females are not allowed.
