“The Chocolate Barista was supposed to be a lifestyle blog, to be honest...once I introduced what my coffee experience was like as a Black woman and saw the reception from that, I realized race was a missing conversation overall and decided to dig into that.” - Michelle Johnson
I was straight edge, I didn't drink caffeine, no alcohol, drugs. I just hopped into coffee.
- Aziz X, Coffee Roaster
“After I got fired from Starbucks, I thought there was probably really good coffee out there and I was missing out. So, I sought out better coffee.” - Alan Gomez - owner of Commodity Coffee in Long Beach, CA
