Hey y’all,
We’re all going through a whirlwind of emotions following the devastating event on May 25th, but more importantly in realizing that our backs have been turned on the black lives matter movement at large. While everyone’s been taking the time to truly educate themselves and stand up for global change, we’ve been taking the time to do the same. We've discovered some incredible female black-owned businesses that you queens can check out and support as well.
Now is the time that action is needed the most. Whether you decide to spread valuable news through conversation or social media, make donations to causes that resonate with you, or buy from black-owned businesses -- every effort matters.
If you’re reading this, you’re an absolute queen for taking a significant step in supporting this movement. We’ve curated these options based on what we know you would love. Let’s dive in…
