Message To Urban Biz Members

Hello Urban Biz Members, My name is Eric L. Harris and my dream is to bridge the gap between the ghettos of America and Corporate America. For too long, Corporate America has taken the styles and culture of the street life and turned it into a multi-billion dollar industries. From apparel (loose fit Levi's), to automobile designs(Chrysler), to entertainment(Vanilla Ice), wall street continues to generate billions of dollars in revenue off of the blood, sweat, and tears of those who created these ideas. They take our culture from us and then sell it back to us at a price that the average person can not afford. That is the driving force behind crime and oppression in the projects and run down ghettos that we live in today. The mission of my corporation is to create our own Wall Street. I call it Urban Wall Street! We aim to create a new way of life for oppressed individuals through spiritual growth, education, business, and the adversities we face in our everyday lives. By monopolizing the Urban Market, the sky is the limit when it comes to successUrban Biz Directory is not only a directory for African American owned businesses, but also a tool to teach young black men and women how to start a business. A social economic network of minority owned companies will allow information on goods and services to be readily available for those who seek it. This will not only create jobs, but also change the lives of millions who live in despair. The directory is meant to be interactive. A major network of those who have overcome the odds and those seeking assitance with overcoming those same odds. If you would like to help my mission or join the network, please feel free to call Eric Harris at (352) 474-8708 or E-Mail urbanbizdirectory@gmail.com
