Important Men | Mr. Hudson & Reginald Lewis

As a youth, I had a tutor named Mr. Hudson.  Mr. Hudson introduced his students to powerful minds of all races, yet focused our attention on powerful African American minds.  Mr. Hudson would say, “respect all races, know yourself and the many contributions African Americans are responsible for.”  Of the many educational mainstays Mr. Hudson introduced me to, Mr. Reginald Lewis and his business mind peaked my interest.

Mr. Lewis was an American businessman, who was one of the most successful business leaders during the 1980s. He was the richest African American man in the 1980’s. Born in Baltimore, Maryland Mr. Lewis went on to purchase McCall Pattern Company (which he sold at a huge profit) and Beatrice International Foods.

Take a look at this gentleman, a great professional look.
