usb hub not working

Dear TI

I have a Beagle bone black i have connected to the USB port of BBB a USB hub the hub does not get/receive any power?

the BBB is powered using a mini USB cable 

Questions:

1) if i understand the mini USB cable supplies 5V DC to the BBB. then why is the USB hub not getting any power ?

2) do i need to use a hub which is self powered in order for all devices on hub to be working?

Regards
