When you support #BlackOwnedBusiness, you support Black pride, unity, and self-determination. Whenever we use our buying power to boost a #smallbusiness, we are supporting our communities. #BuyingBlack shouldn’t be just a hashtag but a lifestyle. #iBuyDC

Congratulations to Angel, owner of Black and Forth, for paving the way for many #BlackOwnedBusinesses to have a retail space to call home. You were intentional about strengthening black businesses and have become a pillar of the #Ward5 community.  #TheSpiceSuite #shopblack

The Downtown Holiday Market is a winter favorite in DC – a great place to meet up with friends, pick up gifts, support local entrepreneurs, and then spend time enjoying downtown. #HollyJollyDC fox5dc.com/news/dcs-downt
