This information was collected in early June 2020, so some of the businesses may have changed location or are no longer in business. Information was gathered primarily from Black Privilege, an app created with a “mission is to connect and educate the black community through economic gardening and sustainable technological platforms” in Kansas City. Information was also gathered from several other outlets. http://www.blackprivilege.org/
Please comment on any that we missed or which is your favorite! We focused mainly on restaurants & bars leaving out catering, most bakeries, and coffee shops to focus the topic. Let us know if you would like to see a video on those as well! The images that are not credited, come from Google Maps to give an idea of where they are located. We’re FlatlandKC.org, KCPT’s digital magazine, a destination for local and regional storytelling in and around Kansas City and home of curiousKC.
