7 A.M. A Documentary(2015)
If You're Black . . . and Broke . . . It's Time To Wake Up
Black people face a lot of problems, but the root cause of those issues is our lack of businesses. 7 A.M. is the first documentary ever that talks to leading scholars, academics, and businessmen exploring in depth why racism isn’t a social issue but an economic one. Since the 1960’s we’ve focused on education and politics, however, the solution isn’t building more schools or government positions… The solution is building more businesses.
