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]."

New York is first on this list, thanks to organizations like the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce, that provides valuable resources like financial advice and networking events, to give Black business owners an edge.

Really great talk on the future state of 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. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/

"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."
