Keenen Smith Sr., an African American entrepreneur and technology innovator, is making history as the mastermind behind HOMER, a next-generation luxury electric robotaxi. The launch marks a historic milestone, as Smith becomes the first entrepreneur to develop a luxury EV robotaxi at a time when the global auto industry is rapidly shifting toward electric and autonomous transportation.
More than just a new vehicle, it represents ownership and leadership in a sector that will shape the future of mobility. While major automakers and technology giants compete to dominate the autonomous space, Black ownership at this level has remained rare. This debut signals that innovation in advanced transportation can also be driven by diverse leadership and vision.
New Self-Help Book “Blame It on the Feel of Pain” About Detangling From Past Pain
Get ready for a transformational journey toward inner peace as indie author Max W. Miller’s new self-help release, Blame It On The Feel Of Pain, inspires readers in a witty, down-to-earth book. Truth and compassion are foretold, using poetic frames called ‘The Wises,’ and the help of opinionated little emojis bringing laughter and thought-provoking conclusions throughout.
The author encourages her readers, whom she also calls partners, to stop wrestling with the hard knocks of the past. She expresses how voluntarily walking back into time precedes trauma healing. Confronting lingering pains is a step toward strength and hope for the future. ‘Blame It’ delves into the author’s life experiences, bringing to life the importance of using Full Circle Moments to find resolutions.
Throughout Blame It On The Feel Of Pain, the reader grows to understand through a unique interpretation that what we are destined to become grows out of the years we’ve already traveled. Further, our future hinges on how we address the pains of the past. Other expressions focus on how desires in the present are carved out of having a clear vision that old, lingering strongholds must be defeated. A history of suffering is a prerequisite for becoming fed up enough to demand enjoyment now!

The vehicle is named in honor of Homer B. Roberts, widely recognized as America’s first Black automobile dealer. In the 1940s, Roberts broke racial barriers by securing a Packard dealership franchise in Chicago, proving that Black entrepreneurs could succeed in an industry that had largely excluded them. His determination opened doors in automotive retail at a time when ownership opportunities were severely limited.
By naming the vehicle after Roberts, Keenen Smith Sr. intentionally connects the legacy of early automotive pioneers to today’s electric and autonomous revolution. Just as Roberts helped expand representation during the gasoline era, this new luxury EV robotaxi symbolizes participation and leadership in the next generation of transportation.
Engineered as a fully electric, luxury autonomous vehicle, it is designed for future deployment in urban centers, airports, corporate campuses, and hospitality districts. The focus is on combining zero-emission performance, autonomous driving capability, and a premium passenger experience into a high-end mobility solution.
With this historic unveiling, Keenen is not only introducing a cutting-edge electric robotaxi but also advancing a broader vision of economic inclusion in emerging technology industries. The milestone positions Kansas City as an emerging mobility hub and reinforces the message that the future of transportation can—and should—include diverse ownership at the forefront of innovation.
