Every year, the holiday season brings a wave of shopping, gifting, and spending. But this year, more than ever, many people in our community are choosing something different. In response to major retailers stripping away DEI commitments and investing in structures that suppress Black voices, Black brilliance, and Black advancement, we’re seeing a powerful shift:
Black consumers are intentionally circulating their dollars back into Black-owned businesses.
This isn’t just a trend.
This is strategy.
This is economic resistance.
This is community care.
For those of us who are committed to building a world where Black people, especially Black women, are valued, protected, and uplifted, choosing where we spend our money has become necessary. Every purchase has power, and this season is a chance to wield that power for our own collective good.
Why Shopping Black Owned Is Critical
1. It’s About Redistribution—Not Retail
When Black-owned businesses thrive, our entire community benefits. Jobs are created. Wealth circulates in our neighborhoods. Mental health, wellness, and empowerment services expand. Families feel the impact for generations.
Supporting Black-owned businesses is about making sure our dollars serve our growth.
2. It Counters Systems That Are Actively Working Against Us
With DEI programs being dismantled across major corporations, we cannot depend on systems that were never designed to protect us. Instead, we invest in us—our stories, our healing, our financial freedom, our joy.
3. It Fuels Representation in Spaces Where We’ve Been Shut Out
From wellness to media to entrepreneurship, Black women continue to innovate and lead. When we shop Black, we ensure those lanes stay open, visible, and thriving.
4. It Strengthens Our Emotional and Mental Well-Being
Supporting businesses aligned with our liberation does more than strengthen finances. It strengthens identity, self-worth, and the belief that our lives and contributions matter.
Why Support Me
My work is centered the emotional, spiritual, and mental well-being of Black women.
