Reclaim Your Power. Own Your Platforms. Join BlackShares.
It's time for the Black community to profit from our Social Media presence, instead of allowing it to be monetized by others. Join BlackShares — A Social / Professional Network designed BY Black people, FOR Black people.
Stop Building Their Wealth. Start Building Ours.
We've been Monetized for Long Enough. Now? It's Time for Us to Profit.
It's that simple.
We've casually given away our purchasing power and our market impact—lending our influence to brands and allowing social platforms to profit and grow at our expense.
Now? It's time to shift the narrative.
BlackShares is a social & professional networking platform
that's designed to put the profit back in your pocket, and empower the Black community to finally extract the value from our
cultural influence—instead of giving it away for free.
How it WorksWhy Now?
The Real Problem: We've Been Locked Out of the Profits.
Hip-hop. Streetwear. Music. Viral dance trends. Fashion. Slang. Style—
We have created and shaped culture for generations—only to watch others turn that very culture into billion-bollar industries while we remain consumers instead of owners.
Don't believe me? Here are a few examples to think about.
The Harlem Renaissance brought jazz music to the world—yet Black artists struggled to own their music, let alone reap the full financial benefits.
In the 80s and 90s, Black athletes and rappers transformed sneakers from “affordable footwear” to a status symbol… But who owned the brands? Not us.
Social Media Today? How many dance trends and viral memes have emerged from the Black community and sparked global movements? How much of that revenue have we received?
You get the point…
We have always been the trendsetters—
But never the equity holders.
BlackShares is changing that… We're not just a social platform.
We're building a system designed to finally help us earn our worth and make Black culture work for Black people.
How BlackShares Works. Own Our Influence—Build Our Wealth.
Most platforms profit from your time, content, and network.
BlackShares flips the script.
1. Get Involved = Get Paid
Every BlackShares member earns a regular dividend based on platform revenue.
No, you didn't read that wrong; you'll be earning money just by being involved!
Plus, you'll earn a share of the membership fee paid by each new member you refer.
Last but not least, a portion of every dollar that comes through the platform is set aside into an investment fund for Black owned startups on the platform.
2. Shop & Support Black Businesses
Every dollar you spend has power. BlackShares helps you maximize that power and see a return.
We're curating a network of Black-owned businesses to redirect our economic power back into our own community.
Plus, you can earn cashback while shopping at major retailers!
3. Connect, Collaborate & Grow
Your network is your net-worth.
BlackShares connects Black startup founders & business owners with the customers who want to support them—as well as
with the skilled professionals, influencers and advisors they need to succeed.
Best of all, founders share equity and/or revenue with their collaborators instead of cash, which lowers their startup costs and shares the wealth when they succeed.
Why Now?
For too long, we've poured our creativity, influence, and spending power into platforms that don't reinvest in us.
The result?
A system where we generate the trends, but someone else reaps the profits.
BlackShares is changing that.
By owning our platform, we take control of our influence, our content, and our economic future.
BlackShares is a necessary shift toward a new era of Social Media, where we are in charge of the cashflow, not just giving away our cultural wealth.
It's time to stop giving away your time, content, and influence for free.
BlackShares is built for us, by us—designed to make sure our community profits first.
The BlackShares Mission
Build unprecedented Black economic empowerment through platform ownership, Black business creation, collaboration and shared upside.
The BlackShares Vision
We envision an economically empowered Black community that owns its own platforms, activates all of its talents via collaboration, and unleashes an unprecedented wave of Black business ownership—all to the benefit of the entire community.
It's our time to profit.
We're building a new economy for all of us. Join us and share the upside.
