Island Pops @ #CoffeeUpliftsPeople PopUps @Brooklyn Roasting Company: Tuesdays 7am-7pm, 9/1-11/3

Khalid Hamid and his wife, Shelly, created Island Pops in Crown Heights, Brooklyn five years ago. Both came from Trinidad, and it was Shelly’s craving for the flavors of her homeland that inspired them to open this family business. “We saw the need for the island experience, the island authenticity,” Khalid said. “Flavors like guava, sorrel, passion-fruit, coconut, mango.” https://www.cbsnews.com/news/the-cool-story-behind-popsicles/ #CoffeeUpliftsPeople (C.U.P.) will exist as a campaign in conjunction with https://brooklynroasting.com/ thru October with an intended brand launch (Website, tagline, etc ) for early November.

MY SMALL STORY

Over the past 15 years I have traveled, filmed and and acquired a library of over 6,000 hours. From the recording studio in NYC to South African Safari’s, I have filmed my conversations and watched my library grow. On April 26, 2010, I launched www.MySmallStroy.com in NYC as a way to share insight. My Small Story contextualizes life through a collection of unscripted filmed conversations with small businesses, entrepreneurs, artists and everyday people filmed, edited & shared weekly by LaRon Batchelor – a videographer/ethnographer with 15 years experience filming conversations in 4 continents.
