I created a post here recently on the blog that contained over 101 small businesses to support during Covid. Businesses that needed help during the pandemic, as they navigated such a difficult time and adapted, in some cases, to an entirely new way of being. From businesses based around delicious food to luxury fashion and from innovative beauty to virtual personal trainers - there was a plethora of amazing stores that I was thrilled to discover and have continued to be a happy paying customer of.

In the same vein of amplifying small businesses who need our support, this blog post is dedicated to all the amazing black owned businesses I've recently discovered. Business owners, brands and entrepreneurs who have not only been affected by Covid but by systemic racism too. 

Just as I spoke about the importance of diversifying my social feeds as a first step, I also need to diversify the spending decisions I make. I hope you'll join me in discovering some new brands, maybe making a purchase if you're financially able to or even just boosting their social following and increasing their engagement online.

If you have any businesses you'd like me to add to my lists just let me know below, I'd be thrilled to discover some more you think I'd love to shop at and hopefully become long term customers of.

Black lives matter.
Black businesses matter.
