Johnson & Johnson Sued For Allegedly Marketing Products That Could Cause Cancer To Black Women

Pharmaceutical giant Johnson & Johnson is being sued on allegations of marketing talc-based baby powder to Black women knowing that the product could potentially cause ovarian cancer, the Los Angeles Times reports.

One key investment in the future prosperity of our economy is a thriving and empowered Black male youth population. There are myriad paths to get there, but through my work I have learned that belief is imperative. Accordingly, I offer three major lessons from my personal and professional journey to illustrate the power of belief in our Black boys and young men.

Brooks says On Fire Coffee we set ourselves apart in the coffee industry not only with the coffee itself, but also with our outstanding quality assurance, selective harvesting, and preparation process. We have cultivated a company culture of passion, enthusiasm, and care, and this has resulted in a distinguished and innovative team of people who run our business, and assure the continued success and growth of On Fire Coffee.

Indeed, each bag of On Fire Coffee will feature a special message from Brooks: “My vison is to stimulate AMERICA through coffee. On Fire Coffee began with a friendship and a common desire making amazing coffee and sharing it with others.”  The ritual, the brew, the aroma and most importantly, that very first cup every morning that sets the tone, is something we look forward to every day. Because of our passion, we've gotten together with a roaster and handcrafted our very own blend of Coffee. I hope you enjoy, share, and join us in savoring many cups of On Fire Coffee for years to come."
