The Black Lives Matter movement and current global protests advocating for racial justice and equality have generated a groundswell of support for Black-owned businesses. The 2012 US Census Report revealed 2.6 million Black or African-American owned businesses in America, up 35% from 2007. You may have heard of many larger companies that fit the bill, but what about small to medium-sized businesses? Today in honor of Juneteenth and going forward, you can vote with your dollars by giving your support to these 15 companies with Black founders and owners. They offer everything from software infrastructure to book publishing to PR services, to natural skincare products and cars that help out single moms.
