Cause nobody ever provides context. :beli:



The pandemic has severely impacted Black-owned businesses, with 41% shutting down and many others on the brink, according to the National Bureau of Economic Research.

Since its 2021 opening, The Sistah Shop has provided a vital platform for over 500 Black women-owned brands. However, the shop is now in financial trouble and has launched the #SavetheSistahShop campaign to raise $50K for a sustainable future. Community support is crucial to ensuring it continues to uplift Black women entrepreneurs.

Yall really don’t know how rough the Covid recovery has been for Black business. If you don’t have an elite location and a trusted brand to build off of it’s extremely tough to survive.

Kudos to these Black folks for coming together and helping a business out. Instead of crying and listening to grifters we need to get on the same page and make real moves.
