This segment aired on Chicago Tonight on Monday. An Oak Park couple, John & Maggie Anderson, committed themselves to only patronizing black owned businesses such as the only black-owned grocery store in Illinois.
This isn't the first time I've blogged about them, go back to a post from Dec. 27th, 2008. Check out the home page of Chicago Tonight to find more links to those black-owned businesses that the Andersons have patronized! Just look for segments under July 13, 2009.
Also check out their website The Empowerment Experiment.
