IMAGINE THAT!!! “YOU CAN STAND UP FOR WHAT’S RIGHT AND STILL BE SUCCESSFUL” - Mr. Crim #TeamDL Source - mrcrim3 : Repost from mrcrim3: (Is this why we ate there so much growing up? 🦞 😆 Bill Darden refused to comply with Jim Crow laws when he opened his first restaurant in the 30s, during the Great Depression in Georgia. Eventually, the success of the Green Frog restaurant led to him creating Red Lobster and various other popular and profitable restaurants over the course of his life. This proves, once again, that you can absolutely be profitable while standing for what’s right, despite what some will have you think nowadays. If he could do this in 1938 when the stakes were a lot higher, what’s stopping you from doing something similar on a grander scale today with your business? 🤔 Did you know this? 👀 BTW, Darden sold Red Lobster in 2014. #blackhistory #ushistory #racism #jimcrow #redlobster #olivegarden #outbacksteakhouse #whiteallies #whiteally #restaurant )
