Positive Programs For Black Children, Zen Masters

I happened upon a series of videos produced by a Black man who owns a Karate school, called Zen Masters.  His many students, are all black children from the city.  He teaches them discipline, self-control, focus, calm, and while building their self-esteem, confidence, and physical fitness.

Here is just the introductory video, I will upload some of more of these videos soon, that show more of their training:

Most Black Friendly Restaurants And Bars In North Dakota

Below I have compiled a list of the restaurants and bars that are most friendly towards people of color in North Dakota.  This list is not all inclusive, but serves as a guide, from my experiences:

  • King Buffet Chinese Restaurant, Dickinson – This restaurant is Chinese owned.  They have a buffet, hibachi, take-out, and you can order from their menu.  They serve a variety of beer on the premises.  Usually not crowded, due to high capacity seating.
  • Four Bears Casino Buffet and Restaurant, New Town – This casino is on the Three Affiliated Tribes reservation in New Town.  They have an excellent buffet, which can cost up to $30 at dinner when they serve seafood.  They have a separate fine dining restaurant which is very expensive.
  • Teddy’s Residential Suites Dining Room, Watford City – This restaurant and bar are located in the Teddy’s Residential Suites hotel.  You can sit at the bar, the lounge, or parlor, and order drinks and food.
  • Players Club, Dickinson – This restaurant has a sports bar, where you can sit at the bar and order drinks and food, or you can be seated at tables in the bar area.  They also have a separate formal dining room.  This bar and restaurant are more upscale for Dickinson.
  • Paragon Bowling Alley, Dickinson –  This restaurant is a diner, that is open 24 hours on Friday night and Saturday night.  They have Black waitresses and cooks.  This place is probably the most social for Black people in Dickinson, but it can get rowdy for anyone at any time, due to people coming from the bar at the Paragon, or other bars in Dickinson.  I believe that we have video from the bar at the Paragon below:
