A coffee shop opening at 10 a.m. feels fundamentally wrong. By 10, I’ve already had coffee, contemplated life, and answered emails. Coffee shops should be open at the crack of dawn. We’re losing the plot.
Meet Nicholas Perkins, this visionary HBCU grad who acquired all 92 Fuddruckers restaurants for $18.5 MILLION! 👏🏾
Nicholas Perkins (Howard University & Fayetteville State University) made history as the new owner of the iconic “World’s Greatest Hamburgers” brand — spanning the U.S., Canada, Panama, and Mexico.
From successful franchisee to full owner of a national chain!! This is what Black wealth building, vision, and HBCU excellence look like in action!
Proud of Nicholas Perkins for showing the world what’s possible when ambition meets opportunity. The future of Black business is bright!👏🏾👏🏾
I see your profile picture. That’s Johnny Cash. My hero too. Arrested seven times. Smuggled 668 amphetamines across the Mexican border in 1965. Took every drug there was and drank like I did. Cheated on his first wife. Slept with more woman than I ever did. Hit bottom in a cave in Tennessee in 1968 trying to crawl off and die. And then he got up. He got clean. He spent the rest of his life singing for prisoners and addicts and the people the country threw away because he knew he was one of them.
That was the whole point of the Man in Black. He wore it for the poor and the beaten down. He wore it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime. He wore it for the ones who never heard a word of Jesus. He wore it for the addicted and the dying. He wore it as a standing witness that no one is past saving.
You picked his picture. You did not pick his message. Try listening to the words.
For example, if you leave a guy and a girl onto a deserted island, and they're in a state where they haven't had any general education or know what s£x is, would they naturally figure out the whole process up to reproduction?
