Minding My Black Owned Business

Seventeen-year-old Jaida James is all about hustle, heart, and handmade merch—trying to turn her craft into a real business before graduation. But when her Black History Month sale flops, her best friend Halley goes viral selling Black-themed products without being Black, and her school shuts down her club idea before it even starts… Jaida starts questioning everything.

Her identity. Her friendships. Her worth.

As tensions rise in school and online, Jaida learns that running a business isn't just about making sales—it’s about knowing who you are, what you stand for, and how far you’re willing to go to protect your culture.

This isn’t just about t-shirts and dolls anymore.
It’s about truth, community, and Black excellence—24/7, 365.

She wanted to build a business. What she started was a movement.

♥ Here what other readers are saying about this book ♥

This was a well put together story. Each character represented something that could change a life. Yes, forgiveness is powerful!

I read this book in one day. Ross was a true man of God and showed what God's unconditional love looked like in the flesh. Kara Lee endured a lot but she was able to see God's unconditionall love through others. The other characters represented the world , enemy and religious without relationship with God. I hope that there is another book by this author using these characters
