✊🏽Day 4 of Kwanzaa: UJAMAA (Cooperative Economics) Ujamaa reminds us that our dollars have power — especially when we choose to build, support, and sustain our own communities. 📍Today, we’re highlighting leaders who showed what cooperative economics looks like in action: • Annie Turnbo Malone — built the Poro Company, creating jobs and economic opportunity for thousands of Black women. • Tom Joyner — a Tuskegee University alum who used his media platform to reinvest directly into HBCUs through scholarships and fundraising. • John H. Johnson — founder of Ebony and Jet, who built a media empire that kept Black stories, talent, and dollars within the community. Their work reminds us that Ujamaa isn’t just about ownership — it’s about circulating resources so everyone can thrive. 🖤❤️💚 Stay tuned as we continue 7 Days of Kwanzaa — HBCU Style all week. . . #hbcu #historicallyblacksince #kwanzaa #blackexcellence #blackhistory
