Black Business Month
August is National Black Business Month. National Black Business Month is an annual celebration to acknowledge and drive attention to Black-owned businesses that play a vital role in maintaining local economies and establishing general wealth. John William Templeton and Frederick E. Jordan Sr. founded National Black Business Month in 2004. Our management agency and gallery are thrilled to embark on a month-long campaign dedicated to celebrating and supporting local Black-owned businesses. We believe in the power of community and the importance of uplifting the voices and talents that enrich our neighborhoods. This year’s interviews will feature food and beverage, wellness, art, fashion and apparel Black-owned businesses. #BlackBusinessMonth

My career as a storyteller began unexpectedly but with clear intention. In 1992, as a new mother, I wanted to give my child what my late father had given me: an unapologetic sense of pride in my culture as an African in the Diaspora.
