Thanks for the suggestions! Im actually planning a trip to DC ☺️
Who cares
Tell me you're a skin worshipper without actually telling me. You call yourself "black" because of a German man named Johann Friedrich Blumenbach. Will you admit this truth?! Only YAHUAH ELOHIM knows. That's GOD Almighty by the way.
Horace and Dickie’s
I’ll stick to white owned
In Germany in the 30ies and 40ies we used to paint the star of David on the shops of jewish owners, so we knew its jewish owned businesses.
It's cool to be racist when you're black
Ben's was a waste of time …the food ain't half as good as it used to be… other than that, you hit a few decent tourists spots
No one cares
Super racist! Why can’t it just be a restaurant?
Black is a color not a people. Bless up.
This is disgusting
Reverse racism
1/2 smoke is overrated . Bens and Bens next door is good but you’re paying for the historical value.
If I see that a business promotes being white owned, I’m not eating there. The same goes for a business that promotes themselves as blacl owned!
Thank you. I need more reviewers like u❤!
Yes her intentions were good when making this video but it still feels really racist. Why does race have to be a factor at all? If she had made a video only eating at white owned businesses the video would be taken down. Some really weird double standards going on…
“Black Owned Business” ?? The last time America saw businesses labeling themselves by color was some of the most shameful times in American History (prior to & leading up to the Civil Rights “Progress” dates of ‘54-‘68). Segments of the Black population have picked up where racist, bigoted monsters left off during that era. They are promoting division, separation and racial discrimination. This language being used, perpetuated and encouraged is in itself, racism. If ANY other color, nationality or race were to label their business in this way, there would be riots in the streets. “White Owned” “Asian Owned” “Hispanic Owned” IMAGINE, just imagine the division that would be created if each of these owned business labeled themselves accordingly. View the University of Washington’s research on this. It has only proved to discourage other races from entering these businesses because they don’t feel welcomed. Why would they? Of course black owned businesses that have seen business fall off for posting these signs tell themselves that racism is the cause. Yes, it is. Your racism. When you sit in the circles of business owners that label themselves, you find that they often have enormous walls up to most other races.
love it
The fact you went to bens and didn’t get something with chilli tell me all i need to know
ok lol
