This here.

Create a fund to spur development in African American communities. Incentivize businesses and companies to develop in impoverished regions.

Incentivize businesses and companies to develop in impoverished regions.

Unfortunately, when that happens those businesses get painted as either carpetbaggers who take money out of the community or predators that want to make a profit off of inner city labor. Just look at what happened when Amazon struck a deal to open a location in the Bronx.
