The Incredable History!
The Incredable History!
In January 1969, the Black Panther Party initiated the People's Free Food Program, also recognized as the Free Breakfast for School Children Program, at St. Augustine's Episcopal Church in Oakland, California. Their inaugural breakfast served 11 children, offering a nourishing meal of grits, eggs, fruit, toast, and milk. By the week's end, participation had grown to 135 children. The program's impact burgeoned rapidly, spreading to 23 cities and catering to over 20,000 children by the end of 1969.
This initiative emerged as a direct response to pervasive poverty, with nearly one in three Black Americans falling below the poverty line at the time. The Black Panthers' advocacy exerted substantial pressure on the government, contributing to the expansion and eventual institutionalization of the federal School Breakfast Program in 1975. The program's success relied on the collaborative efforts of local businesses, churches, and community organizations, which generously donated both space and provisions to support its mission.

Share Some Black History
I just got this sweatshirt this past weekend and it meets and exceeds my expectations. It’s not too thin a material, the print is great, and it feels like an old school sweatshirt your gym teacher would rock back in the 1980’s. I’m glad I ordered it!

A Culture Vulture Free Zone
About UsLook, we're all for inclusion and the diverse celebration of Black History. However, it has become increasingly common for NON Black-owned companies to sell Black Culture while also falsely claiming to be Black-owned. This practice of cultural appropriation is not only dishonest but also disrespectful to the Black community. By profiting off of Black culture without actually supporting or empowering Black-owned businesses, these companies perpetuate systemic inequality and contribute to the erasure of Black voices and perspectives. It is important for consumers to do their research and support authentic Black-owned businesses that prioritize social justice, equity, and circulation of the Black dollar; rather than those that simply capitalize on the latest cultural trends.
