Members of Louisville's Cuban community plan to gather Sunday in support of a NuLu restaurant owner who says he was threatened by Black Lives Matter protesters during a recent demonstration. https://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/2020/08/01/louisville-cuban-community-rally-support-la-bodeguita-de-mima/5562669002/ --- It wasn't a gift or stolen, something happened, and the guy who had it didn't need it anymore ...

Lmao, as someone who lives within walking distance of NuLu, it's funny to see this story on CE. I'd like to add a few things.
1) BO$$, the group which conducted these "social justice inspections," is a fringe offshoot of BLM Louisville that thankfully doesn't reflect BLM Louisville as a whole. 2) The Courier-Journal has another interesting article about perspectives from other NuLu business owners. As you can see, it has been a polarizing situation among those tenants. https://www.courier-journal.com/story/news/local/2020/07/30/louisville-protests-nulu-businesses-respond-gentrification-demands/5546810002/ 3) While the overarching BLM/Breonna Taylor protests have been widely discussed and supported in Louisville, the general public has mostly been either unaware of the BO$$ inspections or considers them hot air/unrealistic. Even on r/louisville, which is very liberal, these inspection demands have received far more criticism than support. 4) I've said it before and I'll say it again - Louisville is an absolute dumpster fire of a city, and you should exhaust all other options if looking for a place to live or visit. --- The music was thud-like.
