If you haven’t been on any silent retreats to the woods or if you don’t happen to live off the grid, although I’m not sure how you would be reading this, then you’ll know protests, marches, and an outpouring of support on social media continue unwaveringly in response to a long history of racial injustice towards Black people.
People have not only been sharing a ton of petitions calling for systemic change, a plethora of educational materials, and powerful messages, but many have also been graciously compiling and sharing lists upon lists of Black-owned businesses to make a better effort to support. Etsy is one platform that has curated a list that specifically highlights their Black-owned shops as part of their mission to better support Black business owners on their site, as well as stand in solidarity with Black Lives Matter, and we’ve chosen just a few out of hundreds of Black-owned shops that will certainly make your next credit card statement one you’re nervous to check.
