There is a lot going on around the world currently and I want to use my voice to stand with my people- black people. Many conversations are going on about what we can do to hold people accountable when it comes to racism against blacks and how to help. If you want to support black people outside of donating, protesting, educating yourself and other things I will urge you to shop Black. I started being intentional about supporting more black designers last year and it’s crazy because I’ve been meaning to do a video or blog post about this for some months now. I spoke about this on my Instagram stories last Summer so I’m super excited about today’s post. I’ve listed 50 black owned businesses you can support in the beauty, fashion, home interior and photography industries. I’ve bought from some of these companies and can’t wait to support the rest as time goes on. I hope today’s post helps someone and if you know other black owned businesses that belongs in today’s post please let me know.
