[about]
“Business As Usual” is about creating your own sense of movement, taking ownership of what you can influence, and being the author of your own story. A sense of peace and happiness when things seem to be burning around you. And the fact that we have to continuously choose ourselves.
Our setting, Leimert Park, is known for being the center of historical African-American art and music in LA. @NeighborsSkateShop, through the love, energy and impact of skateboarding, helps protect and preserve that culture.
And it is with this sentiment that we were able to showcase businesses that serve the community and tell the story of our hero, Akwasi Baour Owusi.
