Many friends criticize me for my addiction to Starbucks' overpriced liquid nirvana and recently we debated the hand that Starbucks may have in prison industries. Therefore, I was pleased to no end to learn about Sweet Unity Coffee and pledged to support them in an effort to build solidarity. Sweet Unity Coffee and Balm in Gilead are working to support African farmers and provide HIV education across the diaspora. David Robinson, son of Jackie Robinson, is the founder of Sweet Unity Coffee in Tanzania which gives a portion of the sales back to the African farmers. I suggest we all try to take a small step toward helping our people secure a foothold in our global society.
