Black Lives Matter! And as many have pointed out over the past days, in order to change the system we need to put our money where our mouth is. Money talks people! If we can focus on spending the majority of our money on Black businesses and support Black entrepreneurs, we can help driving change. I really believe that this is important – and it is also possible! There are so many online stores and shops out there that are owned by black women and black men in the USA, in Europe and of course also on the African Continent – so let’s make a conscious effort to spend our Dollars, Euros, Pounds etc. with Black Businesses.
Here is a list of some Black-owned online stores that sell African and Africa-inspired Fashion, Accessories and Interior Design. Of course there are many more. Comment below and let me know which ones I should check out!
