Fawn Weaver, I am halfway through the book and I LOVE and appreciate it. The story I am taking away so far is one of GRIT. Terrible things were done to Black people in America. Your book acknowledges those terrible things but does not setup camp there. Instead, you tell us the story of hope, love and power. How we are all powerful, how we all can love, how we all can DO things that create a better world. I'm so inspired to have you as an example. Seeing you build your billion dollar business gives me confidence that I can do so too.

It's brilliant, such a good read. I've been an avid supporter of Uncle Nearest since first hearing the story about 5 years ago, so to be able to read how the brand came about and how it's achieved what people would have considered impossible, is so awesome.

Fawn Weaver started reading your book on the way to our house closing in Las Vegas, NV. Birthday trip experience to Lynchburg, TN was hilarious, reminded me of my work experience in Alabama and my pitstop on the backroads of AR for my trip to start work in Pine Bluff, AR back in the day 😏 Thanks for sharing your story. Can't wait to learn what happens next in your story. By the way, we found some Uncle Nearest in at supermarket near our new Las Vegas home 😎... need some for the new bar. Cheers! 🥃
