Reading Time: 5 minutesFebruary is Black History Month in the U.S. and the observance serves to recognize and pay honor to the achievements and the contributions of our country’s Black populations and their role in US history.
Beyond simply educating yourself on the issues and history of the U.S. and its role for centuries in racial politics and discrimination, supporting Black designers is another major way you can lift up the Black community.
Not only will the following Black-owned home brands provide you with unique statement pieces you won’t find anywhere else, it’s also no secret that money talks, and this can be an added step of solidarity.
