Black business owner whose Dallas restaurant was vandalized: 'I call this a luxury tax.' (via CNBCMakeIt)

Cuban tells CNBC Make It he waited in line for three hours for a veggie burger and onion ringsWilliams was "great with all his customers. His service was good. Most importantly he brilliantly turned it into a block party so that those waiting in the heat enjoyed their time," Cuban says.Williams grew up on the west side of Detroit where he worked as a firefighter. But in 2007, he moved to Dallas, where, on Halloween in 2019, he opened his Burgerim franchise as an investment.

Burgerim's manager did the cooking and Williams "got in my own personal vehicle and I delivered food. ... [It was] just my way of investing back in the customer and just saying, 'Hey, I appreciate you still patronizing my business,'" Williams says. "Just as I could say that my windows have been busted out, there's a gentleman who lost his life," he says, referring to Floyd. "And I understand the bigger picture of what was going on, the climate that we were dealing with.

"Myself and the owner, Wes Williams, became friends and brothers 13 years ago when we began our careers as firefighters with the Dallas Fire Department. I have witnessed his journey to entrepreneurship through hard work and perseverance first hand," the GoFundMe page organizer, AD Calderon, wrote. "The artwork has actually taken on a life of its own," Williams says. "A lot of people have been coming up wanted to take pictures in front of the mural."
