In one sense, it is important to focus on target markets in any endeavor to improve success, especially when specialized resources and skill sets, are required... language, culture, trauma support, child support. But succes isn't achieved by being limited. it's important to engage with other people and cultures as success can be learned from others. That be the concept of college and networking.

As well, seems unfair to other marginalized groups if they don't have similar resources and would be denied access. There's already "business development" organizations, can black women be served by those resources... possibly with the aide of a "guide", rather than setting aside an expensive building for such work? Can black communities gather and fund such endeavors through private donation, like Jewish, Muslim, or other specific cultures?

And to be fair, it's probably not "black women", some black women are very successful... attaining college, owing businesses, raising families, or just holding normal jobs like most people and paying the bills. This endeavor assumably would be those who are caught in cycles of failure, lacking good culture, support of parents, social connections and such... whom are "black women".

A simple solution would be to "specialize" in African American women, but allow access to anyone... and gather funds privately. Note that there are non profits that provide similar services... and serve majority groups "black women".
