How It All Started...
An event that started as a small idea, Minding My Black Owned Business, INC (MMBOB) blossomed as our efforts to creatively launch Southern Pasta Twist took off. After receiving overwhelming support to keep up the concept, MMBOB Inc. was established.
​
MMBOB is a non-profit organization created to connect black owned businesses to their local communities, amplify resources, & supply them with a platform.
​
Similarly, reconstructing Black Wall Street in order to revive what we once had is our primary goal.
