Detroit is proud to host a rich history of food and drink, which includes many black-owned bars, restaurants, and other businesses. Now, more than ever, amidst the pandemic and its disproportionate effect on black communities– layered in with systematic racial injustice– we understand the vitality of supporting black-owned businesses right here in Detroit.
One small way to make a positive impact is to support our treasured black-owned businesses. Redirecting our economic resources is a small way to effect change. Our efforts will help keep people employed and support our black community, loved ones, and black-owned businesses through a continued trying time.
Becoming a better ally begins with making a choice. The choice to show up– no matter the size of the impact– is up to you.
