The Power of Buying Black: How Maggie Anderson Sparked an Economic Revolution is an inspiring and eye-opening exploration of one woman's bold decision to invest in her community—and how it ignited a national movement. Maggie Anderson, a successful businesswoman and mother, made headlines when she and her family committed to buying exclusively from Black-owned businesses for an entire year. What began as a personal challenge quickly became a powerful statement on economic justice, community empowerment, and the transformative potential of collective action.

This compelling story chronicles Anderson's journey, the obstacles she faced, and the undeniable impact of circulating dollars within the Black community. With honesty, urgency, and passion, Anderson sheds light on the racial disparities in economic opportunity and urges readers to harness their purchasing power as a tool for equity. Our Black Year is a call to action—a reminder that where we spend our money matters, and that change can begin with a single, intentional choice.
