Shantell Williams learned how to ride a Harley in her 40s. Eight months after she started, she set out on a journey across 48 states to bring attention to Bessie Stringfield, the first African American woman to ride across America in the 1930s. That ride not only broke a world record but also showed Shantell she could “change people’s attitudes about race and build friends of all colors along the way.”
As mentioned in the story, Shantell Williams runs her own restaurant, Shantell’s Just Until, in Sanford, FL. Visit https://shantellsinsanford.com/ to attend one of her virtual cooking classes. The next live demonstration will be held on June 24, 2021 at 7 p.m. ET. For $20, you get the class plus a shaker of her special Caribbean Kitchen Mild Jerk Seasoning for your own kitchen, shipped right to your door.
