Wilson’s Restaurant Survives Gentrification
(Afro) — Before integration, Black-owned businesses flourished in African-American communities and were considered one of the strongest pillars of African-American culture. But with the benefits of integration also came the declining desire among African Americans to support Black-owned establishments, believing that Whites and other ethnic groups could deliver better products, goods and services. Several generations later, Black businesses have been replaced by fast food chains and small operations owned and operated by persons of other ethnic groups that are heavily patronized by African Americans.
