In a world where the phrase "A seat at the table" is often used to symbolize inclusion and representation, the concept of "A Different Kind of Table" takes on a profoundly different meaning.

 It's not just about creating physical spaces that are inclusive , but ideological space that has built in safeguards against the types systemic inequity that continually find roots to thrive in a Capitalist Society. 

 This concept, spearheaded by the Black Owned Black Operated Collective (B.O.B.O.), envisions a new paradigm where equity, reciprocity, and empowerment are at the forefront.

The Inspiration Behind A Different Kind of Table

Historically, marginalized communities, particularly Black individuals and businesses, have faced barriers in accessing opportunities, resources, and respect. The traditional tables have often been crowded at the top, with those at the bottom struggling to even get a taste of what's offered. This injustice and imbalance in business served as the backdrop for the use of "A Different Kind of Table" as BOBO's company Tagline 

At its core, this campaign challenges the status quo by placing the values of community, representation, and economic empowerment at the center. It rejects the idea that inclusion is just about token representation, and instead, it aims to build an ecosystem where everyone's voice is heard, everyone's needs are met, and everyone's contributions are valued.
