Jesse's Mom
IT ALL TRACES BACK TO JESSE FOSTER'S MOTHER.
Who used to sneak out of Parker High School in Birmingham, Alabama, to attend the rallies led by Martin Luther King Jr. During these marches, photographs captured the water hoses used to disperse the demonstrators.
Foster mentioned that a photograph of his mother is displayed in a Washington, D.C., museum. "There's a picture of my mother wrapped around a post, holding on while being sprayed down," Foster said. "My sisters and I all agree that none of our achievements would have been possible without that post." Now, The Post, a bar named in honor of Foster's mother, features posts that are used to share stories of various artists.

JESSE WELCOMES EVERYONE WITH A WIDE SMILE AND BOOMING VOICE.
Sunlight pours through the southern-facing windows of The Post, casting a warm glow over the indoor patio lined with lush plants and creating a welcoming atmosphere. Behind the bar, Jesse Foster, a dapper gentleman with a wide smile and a booming voice, greets each guest with genuine Southern charm. Originally from Alabama, Foster, who holds a Ph.D. in Psychology focused on curriculum and instructional technology, left his academic career at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in 2001, seeking a change. Tired of following others' directions, he founded The Post, a vibrant cocktail lounge that reflects his desire for a fun, creative endeavor.
