1970 was pivotal in America’s relationship with sustainability and earth preservation. Earth Day was created on April 22, and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was established on Dec. 2, 1970. Since this time, pervasive movements have centered around how people can intentionally preserve the planet by reducing trash, reusing materials, and recycling products to be repurposed. But if you were to talk to many members of the Black community, these practices have been a staple in Black households for decades. While sustainability is making waves through the popular halls of society, the concept is not new for those deeply associated with Black culture. From the reuse of everyday items to the current display of being plant parents, Black people from across the diaspora have been tapping into innovative and natural ways to keep the world “green” before it was ever an official thing. Plant enthusiast and Memphis, TN, resident Eso Tolson reflected on many green moments he...
Master P is on to his next business move, but this time it’s in Nashville, TN. While his son Hercy Miller plays for Tennessee State University, the business mogul has his eyes on expanding his restaurant franchise, Big Poppa Burgers, according to BizJournals. As previously reported by AfroTech, Miller committed to playing basketball for Tennessee State University and secured a $2 million NCAA endorsement deal earlier this year. Big Poppa Burgers currently has two locations in the rap legend’s hometown of New Orleans, LA. As Master P’s now a part-time resident of Nashville, he plans for the city to be another area to spark building wealth in the community. “This is like my second home now,” Master P told BizJournals. “I just fell in love with the culture and the people.

In New Orleans, I have my Big Poppa Burgers restaurant chain, so I’m looking...
Master P is the first to do it in a lot of ways. AfroTech previously told you that he’s the first Black owner of a super-car company. At one point, he was working to close a $2.4 billion deal with Reebok alongside Baron Davis. And, he’s even planning on owning a Historically Black College and University (HBCU) in the near future. Plus, Master P is also someone who shares wealth with his children. Romeo Miller is frequently involved in his father’s business deals. And previously, AfroTech reported that Hercy Miller also secured his $2 million bag with the help of his father. While Master P’s children were most likely raised without having to want for anything, it’s apparent that they’re chasing their own bag. He makes it clear that he’s all about teaching his children to have a business mindset, just like he learned to do, whether that was with music or even beyond it. ”You spread out because you never know when it’s going to end,” Master P said in a 1998 interview with The New York...
