WHO OWNS BLACK ONLINE COMMUNITIES?

Asians, lol. BlackPlanet, which I used to belong to years ago, is owned by Asians! Dang. If ever I join another community, which I'm not inclined to, I will make sure it's owned by blacks. I want to join that dang group and tell them to defect, en mass. They could create a community at MSN for free and be in control.

Does that surprise you? I mean, come on, I have even seen Chinese Soul food here in Dallas! And can you tell me what the hell Koreans know about Black hair and Black skin? I hear my wife and her girls talk all the time about how rude some of those MF's are. "Hurry up buy"! But we as a people still frequent those establishments instead of opening up our own.

Go Figure.

Hi there! Very nice site and what an awesome post. I had no idea that Blackplanet was owned/operated by Asians! WOW! I am not currently a member, I was about 6 years ago but I found most of the people young, and not to bright, with no real focus so I left it.
anyway, thanks for the info, nice to meet you!

Ok dirty red, let me bust your bubble, lol. I am slightly(don't go there) older that you, and Chinese soul food has been around for years. You know these shops always set up in black communities where we can't, and clean up like big dogs. Have you ever been in one and looked around only to see no blacks working or hired? They follow you around like rice on black, like you're gonna make bank in the joint? Lol. We used to have Wing Wah and whatever other place for wings, and on every corner in D.C.! I hated going to them for hair care products and often wanted to boycott them for not having black employees. You know of course that they entrepreneur black and live white? One of those owners used to drive a BMW and lived in Potomac.
