The IBB Investment Group, LLC [ibBIG] launched from I BUY BLACK, Inc. (www.iBuyBlack.org) in January 2019 to provide a practical investment vehicle for business minded individuals who believe in the (7) principles of the NGUZO SABA, particularly Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics) "To build and maintain our own stores, shops and other businesses and to profit from them together." We are always encouraging interested persons who agree with our mission and can make a minimal (3) year commitment to make monthly contribution of $50 to $200.
[ibBIG] is a traditional investment club with a Black History and Cultural component to serve as the "glue" to keep Members (Partners) rooted in our cooperative purpose for wealth building. We encourage all who may have an interest to review the NGUZO SABA and read the Preface and 1st chapter of our 2019 black history book, The Mis-Education of the Negro by Carter G. Woodson.
"Those who have no record of what their forebears have accomplished lose the inspiration which comes from the teaching of biography and history."
- Carter G. Woodson
