In response to In response to 20


          

it has been helpful..


I do wonder why there has been no large movement in "spaces of capital" to create a think tank and lobbying group for black issues.

When we here about The Koch brothers and their use of capital they are funding political organizations that are absolutely swaying Washington (AFP, FreedomWorks, The Cato Institute).

What is keeping the "buy black" capitalist movers and shakers from funding and creating an organization like this SOLELY to sway political will in the US towards the collective pressing issues?
