Black Unicorns

I founded, own, and operate, a business that is so much more than simply selling coffee. I created a vehicle that allows me to learn more about history, the world, and our collective future. I developed a brand that continues to educate and inspire generations young and old to understand more about themselves as well. BVP Coffee Co. doesn’t just sell specialty products and premium ingredients, we sell cultural pride rooted in the heart of Africa. Historically Black fruits, such as coffee, prove that Africa is the origin of Earth’s most popular products. There are riches in our heritage, and our ancestral intelligence provides us everything we need to produce, protect, and preserve our contributions to mankind. When God calls you to your mission, it’s your duty to answer and execute. The war is ongoing, and we must fight until victory is won. In fact, “we must fight until Hell freezes over, and then we fight on the ice.” It’s more important than ever that we lean on, and invest in, our community. Corporations are not people, but we can build brands that embody the values of our most inspiring leaders and agents of change. This #BlackHistoryMonth, let’s be introspective, inquisitive, and intentional. We have everything we need. ??????

Turn the tv off, read a book, and write your own program. It’s the Black radical tradition. Inspired by the Free Breakfast for School Children Program developed by the Black Panther Party in 1969, I educate diverse communities on the power of creative problem solving and cooperative economics in this practical introduction to social entrepreneurship. In ‘Free Breakfast,’ I provide the business case for empowering Black entrepreneurs, in addition to step-by-step guides on how anyone can get started today. This includes blueprints for understanding the Lean Business Model Canvas, Unlocking Your Storytelling Superpowers, Pitch 101, and Dropshipping 101, in addition to How We Used AI to Win $35k in Startup Funding for BVP Coffee Co. Through ‘Free Breakfast,’ I hope to educate, inspire, and empower the next generation of trailblazing entrepreneurs. I am an award-winning entrepreneurial leader on a mission to contribute to a more equitable innovation economy. The revolution will not be televised. ?????
