Empower Yourself
"We actively seek the consensus of the members in terms of shaping the principles, culture, policies and the future of the Afrikan Food Hall. What that means to you as a member is that you have the responsibility and duty to contribute to the shaping of the company." explains Sundjata Keita
With the rise in African music in Afro-beats with the rise in African fashion in priding in our heritage we see a rise in African and Caribbean food and cooking and a look to running our own business based around this. It is now therefore time to grasp this opportunity to empower yourself. In simple terms why should you think about and act with this information in mind. Read on
So our people not only have to be re-educated to the importance of supporting black business, but the black man himself has to be made aware of the importance of going into business. And once you and I go into business, we own and operate at least the businesses in our community. What we will be doing is developing a situation wherein we will actually be able to create employment for the people in the community. And once you can create some employment in the community where you live it will eliminate the necessity of you and me having to act ignorantly and disgracefully, boycotting and picketing some place else trying to beg him for a job.
Anytime you have to rely upon your enemy for a job you’re in bad shape.

It is the long term aim to better the African and Caribbean community.
