While justice-demanding protests and Instagram blackouts have taken center stage this week, if change is going to happen, support of the Black community can’t stop there. If you too are wondering what you can do as an ally beyond pressing the “post” button or making a donation, the answer is clear: it’s extremely important now (and always) to support small, Black-owned businesses.
We’ve rounded up 36 brands owned by BIPOC (a large majority of them owned by women)—where you can purchase health and beauty products, clothing, jewelry, home decor, spices, wine, books, and so much more. So instead of placing yet another order for these things on Prime, consider shopping at one of these small businesses instead.
Show your love and support to these Black-owned businesses:

View this post on InstagramI've got a few pre-printed A3 size mounted art prints ready to ship. I'd initially planned on selling these at a few markets but for now they're taking up residence amongst my growing plant collection! Prices from £40-£80 will put them up in my Insta stories if you're interested just send me a DM
. Also super proud of this (mad simple lool) plant pot cover I made! I've been struggling the past few weeks with creating anything tbh so I've been trying to pivot to other areas I've neglected a bit, so sewing more, slowly redecorating my room and cooking a lot more (made my own udon noodles from scratch the other day
) . Next on the cooking hitlist are some cakes from @bakedbybenji gorgeous cookbook and randomly I'd really like to recreate some US style biscuits (the buttery scone kind not our UK "biscuits") so if you've got a good recipe lemme know!
