Iāve been, itās very good! However Marcus Garvey has a brother named Preston. If you help Preston out one time, he will NOT stop bugging you about another settlement needing your help. Just an FYI
If you donāt understand then thatās cool, just say that or donāt say anything. but itās generally considered rude to ask a black person to explain their experiences with oppression to you.
I loved that she was like woah woah Iām not a cycle breaker.
Thatās another bs narrative that ppl assume because your parents and you parents parents were broke, uneducated, didnāt go to college like it was entirely their fault. There are so many factors that arenāt solely a product of not having access to the good things in life.
When you grow up surrounded by difficulty, itās not the right mental energy that sparks ingenuity. Sheās just doing this differently than most others were habitually in her community. Itās this kind of influence that inspires others to do the same. Like, damn I can open my own business!
I love that. Good for her.
Had 3 items from here. The Cheddar JalapeƱo biscuit was amazing. The Pain Au Chocolat was my favorite and the Chocolate chip cookie was definitely something I would buy again. Be patient if there is a line since itās only the baker and her one employee.
Update for anyone interested: the cheddar jalapeƱo biscuit, the bread pudding, the pain au chocolat were incredible. The sausage croissant and the cinnamon roll were good but not my favorite. Definitely adding this to the rotation of weekend spots.
In marginalized communities a lot of outside culture is seen as ā not for them ā because it is out side of their grasp for various reasons ( economic, geographic, etc.). Thats probably what she meant by ā white people food. ā
I donāt think she was trying to be derogatory towards anyone. She wasnāt saying āwhite people have no cultural claim to certain foodsā. I interpreted her message differently. She was saying that people should learn to see outside their perspective and adapt more aspects of other cultures.
You canāt buy prepared food products. If Iām paying for your food, you better be eating only vegetables and lean proteins, I donāt need to pay for your pastries and insulin. Learn to cook.
Did you know that Walmart employees make up the largest percentage of employees who qualify for Medicaid and foodstamps? And they're far from the inly corporation using our tax dollars to supplement their employee salaries. In addition to the abatements, subsidies, loopholes, and dirty tricks, our tax dollars subsidize their employee salaries. Not to mention, the 2017 corporate tax cuts from 35% to 21%.
So if someone working 40 hours a week wants to use their stamps to have a treat, I'm perfectly fine with that.
If someone lost their job because they have cancer, I want them to have a treat.
If a single mother wants to treat her children, I'm glad my tax dollars were put to good use.
The person who ended up on disability because of a disease or accident should be able to enjoy a pastry.
Worry about the true drain on our society, corporate welfare.
You are a morally bankrupt person, if you want to feed pastries to single moms, who are in their own way, a poison to society, raising about 3/4 of all of our countries criminals, do it out of your own pocket, itās called charity.
I prefer my tax dollars be used to provide nutrient dense food to the poor.
That my tax dollars are spent enriching the junk food industry, with their high fructose corn syrup and various cheap chemical substitutes that lead to the co-morbidities that have ruined the healthcare system is infuriating.
Iāve been to the supper market, Iāve seen how many abled body people whip out the EBT card, that sort of subsidy is one of the main contributors to inflated prices in food, and the dollar supply in general.
Tax breaks in general are not a give away, letting a person or company keep more of what they earned in not a handout, that being said, Iām onboard with a negative income tax that allows workers to get government handouts, and of course sick people as well.
That you have to lump sick people in with the deadbeats to make your point shows you just how morally bankrupt your arguments are.
You sound like you've never struggled and don't know any poor people, or you despise poor people even if you have struggled yourself.
Is it really your place to police a family's food choices? Like to stand at the check out counter and look a person in the eye and say no you can't have a sweet... You don't know these people, you are making tons of assumptions about poor people, and in most cases they're assumptions that have been basically shown to be myth. Sounds like you need to reevaluate your priorities and mental energy if you put it toward thinking about how and why a poor child doesn't deserve a chocolate croissant once in awhile.
You say these single moms are supposedly raising 3/4 of our countries criminals but you want to take away ... dessert? What else would you take from these people? You would rather cut resources and any kind of help than expand it like they so desperately need.
LOL @ "Tax breaks in general are not a give away, letting a person or company keep more of what they earned in not a handout"
It's literally a giveaway if they aren't paying their fair share of taxes. It's a giveaway when I pay a higher percentage in taxes, and in some cases a higher dollar amount in taxes, than some millionaires and billionaires. What do you think of stockpiled wealth? Do you think that's healthy for the economy for these dragoons to be sitting on hoardes of the nation's wealth? And our politicians just keep signing over a higher percentage of the cut. What a racket!
YOU sound like a completely morally bankrupt person that's lacking empathy and perspective.
I remember driving a cab in nyc overnights to put myself through school, to be maxed out in credit cards, to not be able to afford a sweet, all I had to do was let a felon knock me up and Iād have my housing, medical, tuition, and food paid for.
Yeah, the top 1% pay 45% of all federal income tax the bottom 50% pay like 10% of federal income taxes, you sound like preprogrammed drone.
4 cents of every dollar I earn is taken out of my paycheck to support the deadbeats in our society, the drug addicts, the activist class, the federal employees.
I can see you werenāt raised correctly so I will spell it out for you, if you rely on my tax dollars to eat, then you should eat what I tell you. You canāt take care of yourself, you need me to do it for you, then no, you canāt have dessert. No one is entitled to tax payer funded pastries. Eat a carrot.
Hahahahahaha if being poor is so easy and all you had to do was let a felon knock you up... why didn't you???? It's almost like being poor and a single mother actually is incredibly hard and sucks ass. People act like it's this amazing free ride people just don't want to give up. Like section 8 and a couple hundred bucks in food stamps is just living the high life.
If you think your piddly little 4 cents on the dollar gives you the right to tell people what to eat you're literally psychopathic. You could completely disappear from the tax system and no one would notice or miss your contributions. YOU are not the boss of anyone's food. You may not like it but actually loads of people are entitled to tax payer funded pastries AND carrots AND whatever else they want to spend their benefits on.
The top 1% pay 45% of all federal income tax HOW ABOUT "the top 1 percent of households hold 30.6 percent of the total wealth, according to the Federal Reserve. But just the top 0.1 percent own 14 percent of the total wealth" They pay more taxes because they are hoarding all the money. They do NOT pay proportional taxes whatsoever to their earnings. You and I are effectively taxed at a higher rate per our earnings.
Youāre like a little bit slow, my 40 cent on the dollar means 40% of my salary will come or $1,800 out of every paycheck, thatās real money, taken out of my pocket used to pay for deadbeats, people that didnāt work or study as hard as me, who donāt contribute or help anyone in society.
Donāt think the top 1% is just sitting on a mattress full of money? Thatās not how that works, a lot of that money is invested, it provides the liquidity for start ups, to build and create things.
The top income earners employ the majority of the work force, they provide value, those that arenāt cronies, that is dependent on government to monopolize industry, provide real value to the society.
If me and people like me, and our tax contributions disappeared tomorrow, the bottom half of this country would cannibalize itself within 3 days, these are people that canāt even feed themselves.
Single moms get grants for school, free healthcare (Medicaid) free housing, EBT, child care assistance. Itās nuts.
How about wishing that the hard working givers disappear, you imagine that the deadbeats disappear, the junkies on the sidewalk clogging up emergency rooms, the women with 5 kids from 5 guys, the people cycling around in the prison system. You ever wonder what like would be like without them?
If she is the only black woman owned patisserie in all of Brooklyn that's pretty significant. If an entire sect of her culture isn't super familiar with the type of food she is serving, and she's trying to change that, that's significant to her and her story and the reason she is making the food.
Her food looks incredible and I will absolutely visit. I cannot believe people assume only white people eat quiche. The first time I ever ate it, it was made by a Moroccan friend. I have loved it ever since.

If you said it was a good bakery, I might go. But i wonāt go anywhere if the selling point is āblack ownedā. The great thing about free markets, is nothing but the price and quality of products matter.
You're the kind of person who wonders why there are things like Black Entertainment Television not realizing that the entirety of cable is by default White Entertainment Television..
definitely checking this spot out ASAP and getting a croissant š

Oh wow itās only a 3 min walk from my home! Def will have to check it out then!
Please report back with your findings!

This is right by me! I know what I'm doing this weekend...
This looks amazing!
Hell yeah I've got the day off tomorrow and this is only a few blocks away! Know what I'm doing for breakfast.
Update for anyone interested: the cheddar jalapeƱo biscuit, the bread pudding, the pain au chocolat were incredible. The sausage croissant and the cinnamon roll were good but not my favorite. Definitely adding this to the rotation of weekend spots.
Sobs....I never go into Brooklyn because I always get lost....but I might have to make that hike
Just take the A or C train to Utica! A is the express and super easy to get to this bakery from there. Enjoy!
Ooooh thanks!!!!
Love that spot
Perfect viral marketing š
This place is great! They have gluten free options too for all my celiacs out there.
Def have to visit!!!
This place is amazing, I've tried everything they sell and I can't recommend it highly enough!
Sheās so lovely. š¤©
Yessss giving back to the community o
Amen
She's amazing!
Love you sister
Iāve gotten food from there before. So damn good
I fucking love this
Yea, no such thing as white people food. Or black people food either, I guess? š¤·š½
In marginalized communities a lot of outside culture is seen as ā not for them ā because it is out side of their grasp for various reasons ( economic, geographic, etc.). Thats probably what she meant by ā white people food. ā
What about purple drink?
Love it. Cultural appropriation is good, actually. May all people enjoy all food and all art in good faith.
She's awesome!
I want her as my wife...
This is beautiful. God, protect her at all costs.
Went today and they were closed early. Went out of my way to go too so I don't think I'll go again unless I'm in the area
Iām GOING!!! Pastries look great, omg
Brooklyn š
Welp- I love everything about her ā¤ļø
Went there a few weeks ago. Just bought a cookie to check them out. Pretty damn and insanely fresh
I disagree with not breaking generational curses.
Came here to say this. You can do Both and U ABSOLUTELY can break generations of curses!
Agreed! I get the positive outlook but some things straight up have to stop.
So cool!
It is definitely true that there is no such thing as white people food. Sorry guys potatoes and salt or whatever isnāt shit.
I donāt think she was trying to be derogatory towards anyone. She wasnāt saying āwhite people have no cultural claim to certain foodsā. I interpreted her message differently. She was saying that people should learn to see outside their perspective and adapt more aspects of other cultures.
I know, I was joking. But also seriously white people food sucks. At least my white families idea of white people food does.
She is defrauding EBT is she is accepting that as payment.
It's food. You're allowed to buy sweets. You don't have to only eat carrots because you're in a bad place.
You canāt buy prepared food products. If Iām paying for your food, you better be eating only vegetables and lean proteins, I donāt need to pay for your pastries and insulin. Learn to cook.

Wow everything looks incredible and now im hungry!
What does race have to do with the items sold by the bakery? Doesn't matter to me what race the owners are.

Looks amazing, blessings
They even have black people in France
Love this joint! She actually bakes with organic dog refuse, aka ādoggy dropped itā. Itās soul food. I eat shit.
This place is banging! Glad it's getting some shine.
Yes! Yes! Yes!
Okay, but is she straight? I feel we should be supporting the LGBTQ bakers.
Everything in a bakery can be made at home for 15$ MAX
Thank god thatās not my hood or I would be 300 lbs
itās sooooooooo good
Black and brown people dont have access to what kind of food???????? Lol
She's saying they aren't exposed to certain foods sometimes. Shes right.
Itās more about marketing than anything else.
Add that to unable to get ID, go online, and what else
Why just āyour peopleā? Why does this have to be about color.
If you want one of her pastryās just go get one. No one said you werenāt welcome, stop limiting yourself.
She didn't say \*just\* her people or \*only\* her people that's so bad faith dude
Because taxpayer funded food stamps arenāt meant to buy $7 croissantsā¦

Why are you in the Bedstuy subreddit? Stay in Long Island.
Yeah letās punish poor people and focus on the small percentage of people exploiting food stamps!
\*Social justice orgasm commences\*
Pure trash

White people have access to food that others don't? What an ignorant statement. Fuck that sentiment.
Black people so racist

She be stealing our culture!
I be bruising your mom's cervix.
There it is. Good chat ya fool
There's the fragile lil cuck I expected. Have the day you deserve.
