How America’s first — and only — Black automakers defied the odds:
"From 1915 to 1918, the Pattersons built more than 100 two-door coupes; each car took about two weeks to assemble. Meanwhile, Ford had perfected the assembly line and pumped out 300,000 cars in 1915 and a half million more in 1916. It took 90 minutes to make a Model T. With a few exceptions, like Studebaker, Patterson...[couldn't compete]."

Really great talk on the future state of #blacktwitter I especially love the discussion at the end about creating a new space for black people, encouraging black developers, entrepreneurs, leaders to unite and own the next platform and stop renting spaces. #blackdevelopers #blackforum #blackentrepreneurs #podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/marketplace-tech/id73330855?i=1000588302295

"Despite some changes in recent years, food co-ops are among the whitest of co-op sectors. In 2015, two food co-op consultants, Jade Barker, who is Black, and Patricia Cumbie, who is white, teamed up to write a book on the topic. Their book, which was published last fall, is titled Everyone Welcome?: Personal narratives about race and food co-ops."
