Molotov Cocktail Attack Delays Opening for New Black-Owned Coffee Shop and Community Hub in Shoreline - Eater Seattle
"Black Coffee Northwest, an upcoming Black-owned cafe and community center in Shoreline, was almost ready to open for at least drive-thru service after much planning and a fundraising campaign. The shop was damaged by a suspected arsonist, impacting its opening plans. The cafe aspires to be a gathering space for social justice work, a coffee shop, and a community refuge. It aims to be a youth-driven nonprofit that will sell roasts and food from other Black-owned businesses, develop a barista training program, an after-school study hour, a youth outreach initiative, and host cafe conversations around current events." - Gabe Guarente
