Happy Black History Month!

Hey everyone,

 

As we enter into the month of February, it’s a great time to reflect, honor, and amplify the incredible contributions of the Black community and celebrate the start Black History Month.

 

Black History Month is a celebration of resilience, creativity, and the ongoing pursuit of justice. It’s also an opportunity to highlight the achievements of Black entrepreneurs, leaders, and visionaries who have shaped industries and paved the way for future generations.

 

A special shout out to all of our amazing Sellers who are a part of the Uplifted Voices group, a space for Black Entrepreneurs and business owners to find connection, advice, and community. 

 

As we acknowledge and celebrate Black History Month, we should also take this time to support Black-owned businesses within our own community. Whether you're a buyer or a seller, let's continue to make a conscious effort to uplift and empower each other.

 

How do you celebrate Black History Month in your business?

 

Happy Black History Month! 🖤

Happy Black History Month everyone 🙂

We always showcase nail art designs that promote the spirit of Black History.  This month I'm posting everyday a special story on our Instagram page that will showcase one person who has shaped society.  Researching I found black inventors, politicians, civil right movement leaders, beauty professionals, astronauts, and even someone who helped discover and travel to the North Pole.  I hope that everyone learns and loves it as much as I loved creating it 🙂

Our clothing Line Itself is Black History. Our emblem is the Black Heritage Flag. Our existence is primarily about illuminating the errors in American history. Exposing those truths that got altered, and giving the credit of accomplishments and works back to the Black people that were actually those that deserve the credit.

Thank you for posting about this!  Over the weekend we did a pop-up at the famous Orange County Black History Parade & Unity event in Anaheim, California which as such a blast!! I felt so proud to represent as a Black, Woman, Veteran-Owned and Operated Business Owner.  I look forward to connecting more with this group as the year progresses.  Let's keep the press on and continue being the change we want to see!!! 💜

We are celebrating Black History Month with a lecture for our members on the topic of the Harlem Renaissance in pottery. The High Museum is also welcoming a collection of works by black potters in South Carolina during slavery which is an important collection for our city and our industry of ceramics.
