I have been roller skating for 30 years. I have lived in a few States: Colorado (mostly raised), Kentucky, and Alabama. I am a (Black American) USAF Veteran so I have lived in New Mexico, another location, and now I live in the UK for 7 years (no residency) which I will stay one more year here (preparing and building my next career). And then I will move and travel and/or live in different States and countries again with my next career. And continue roller skating in different locations.

So happy to see you post this video about roller skating. As a life-long skater from The Bronx I have seen it go down and come all the way back up. This video is an EXCELLENT example of what happens when black owners step up. You left a few of them out such as Da Dome in Brooklyn but overall this is fantastic BE. Do a follow-up on black owned skate BUSINESS owners!!

Wow, that's crazy that The Rink in Chicago didn't make this list. It has been black owned for 50+ years. And is home to the globally respected skate style known as JB. It was black owned in a era where there were no black owned rinks in the country. Play Mor in Cleveland is another significant Black Owned Rink.

Great video! Thank you for making this. I'm late in watching. Just to add a few to your list for part 2 and the skate family: -Star Rink - Racine, WI (Lesser known, but I had a great time here) -The Rink Fitness Factory - Chicago proper ( I think this one was mentioned by others) -Canton Skateland - Canton IL (Lesser known, but I had a great time here) -Great Skate - Roseville, MI (I'm pretty sure this is owned by AA) -Skate City, East St. Louis, IL (I think still owned by Larry Wise) -Golden Glide - Atlanta, GA (You already mentioned Cascade) Greg Alexander was a New Yorker who moved to Atlanta and started with Golden Glide. Then he built on his success with Cascade. A lot of people don't know about GG or have forgotten it's the older sibling rink. For the purist, homage should be given to GG first, then hit Casc.

We try our best to cover as many as we can and can’t cover everyone in one video. We will have a followup and are using the comments to help identify more Black Owned rinks because due to lack of media coverage, it’s not easy to identify black rinks just through Google and Yelp. Thanks for alerting us. ✊🏽

WHY does it matter what color the owners are. I worked at THE RINK in Bergenfield Nj for 25+ years. No color existed when you were a skater!! WE WERE SKATERS PERIOD!! LATE NIGHT SATURDAYS we packed in over 2,000 people always had famous rappers showing up, even before they were famous. Had shows with many famous people performing. L.L. Cool jay, Brand Nubians, plus many many more. It was the place to be. Like a studio 54 but in jersey and on skates.
