    • In the corporate world black women represent under 1% of executive titles

    • 99.8% of Black Women try to avoid  being labeled as the angry Black Woman.

    The Truth

    • For decades, minority women have had to work twice as hard.

    • Despite the challenges minority women face, most women eventually find a way to start their business. But some women simply give up. 

    • The starting process generally takes twice as long due to the lack of support and limited resources.
