THIS HOTEL BUILDS COMMUNITY AND GIVES CULTURAL EXPOSURE A CONVERSATION WITH MER YANNE LOUM-MARTIN

Transcript

My business here was entirely white until five years ago. And then I had a story in essence, and then black people discovered me and started coming. But so it's not that the business was not doing well before. But with the black business, it did even better. And then I realized also how much the white people who love coming here were excited to be in the same space as black people. I remember one day I had three, uh, uh, wonderful medical doctors, uh, from Florida, returning from university because you were all medical professors. And then they, uh, they had these three rooms where, uh, Caucasian and, uh, 21 rooms were black. They were in a party all the time. They were organizing, asking, do you want to go with me on town, etc. And when they left, they hugged me and they said, all our lives, we were dreaming of being in spaces like this. But we never had the opportunity. You know? So I think it's great that we do the black. It's, uh, it's a design by us. Last year the theme was the wealth of our identities. It's designed by us, but it's for everybody. And it is about showing also where we are today, in many fields, we have phenomenal authors, phenomenal university professors, entrepreneurs, tech people coming. And, um, it's just like a big, uh, intellectual, cultural house party for four days.
