Lewis is hoping when the monies and assistance from the state equity fund kick in, his brand-new business will be included.
“It’s just fairness, you know, just giving someone an opportunity to shine, you know, especially in a market that is dominated by people that don’t look like me,” said Lewis.
Advocate Hashim Coates helped create this fund to build up Black and brown entrepreneurs across the state.
“As well as racism is intentional, equity must be as equally as intentional, if not more,” Coates said.
For Lewis and Harris, fairness is all they hope for.
“We’re actually in the business to show kids who grow up and look like us, ‘Look, you can take your story, your struggle, and you can turn that into a journey and reach a pinnacle someday,’” said Lewis.
Because even though they can’t rewind the clock, they can rebound to a future better than they ever thought possible.
“I know that this is going to take us to places that I would have never dreamed of,” said Lewis.
“This is bigger than making it to the NBA for me,” said Harris. “It does feel like a little bit of justice, but more than anything, the way I look at life, it feels like just a fair opportunity, because that’s all I need.”
