Happy Black History Month!
In honor of Black History and those who made a difference, I wanted to give you three ways to thoughtfully honor Black History Month this year .
1) Watch a documentary about the Black experience or even read a book.
- Whether you want to dive into a specific niche ( like music, film , or activism , there’s almost certainly a documentary out there for you to learn. Here’s a few popular ones.
- Summer of Soul ( Hulu)
- Who killed Malcomb X (Netflix)
- Is that Black enough for You ? (Netflix)
2) Support a Black owned Business
* In fact , why not make it a habit to support black owned businesses all the time ? Yes support Black owned for the fun stuff, but also find Black retailers and service providers ..maybe hire a new accountant , or find a new shop to buy skincare products.
3) Eat at a Black owned Restaurant
* This month , let’s embrace some flavor. Stop into your favorite black owned restaurant and buy some gift cards to give or use in the future. Invest in some good food made by good people. ( Refer to Yelp)
As always continue to Breedlove
