In this episode, host Wil Fulton is joined by Virginia Ali, owner of Washington D.C.'s iconic Ben's Chili Bowl, to talk about what she's seen over her 60+ years in business, the similarities between the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s and the current protests, and what she remembers the most about the Reverend Martin Luther King, one of her "regulars." In the second half of the episode, Wil calls David Cabello, founder and owner of Black and Mobile, the first black-owned food delivery service, on why they only work with black-owned restaurants, how he turned his business idea into (an increasingly successful) reality, and why what they're doing truly matters to the community.
