Buffalo has a rich history of African-American businesses, which we feel need to be highlighted, especially for Black History Month. Monday through Friday, at 10:50 am and 3:30 pm, DJ Hassan and I will give out the Buffalo Black history fact listed below. If you are caller #10 and can provide the correct answer (think Jeopardy), you'll win a $25 Visa gift card courtesy of Hennessy.
