Coming Soon!
Our ability to inspire change starts with
our ability to impose a consequence.
Let’s put our money where our mouth is. Take the pledge: from October 14- October 24, 2024, STOP ALL COMMERCIAL SPENDING unless it’s with minority-owned businesses. A directory will be available here on the website for your convenience.
Looking for a minority-owned business? Click the directory link to find one near you.
WHAT CAN I DO?
The big question
many ask is,
"What can I do?".
Frustration with the current state of
affairs often leads to the belief that we're
powerless or that our voices don't matter.
But the truth is, with grassroots
organization and a shift in our spending
habits, we can make a significant impact.
Not only will we be heard, but we'll also
inspire each other to unite and drive the
change we want to see.
