#BuyBlack this holiday season

More by this author

In the age of internet shopping and social media, it’s easier than ever to find gifts celebrating diversity and Black-owned businesses to support when doing your holiday shopping. A quick search brings up numerous options, and some websites — like trafek.com, as just one example — are dedicated to bringing Black business owners and Black consumers together to keep dollars circulating in the community.

The Recorder picked some of our favorite BOB-made items and diversity-inspired gifts — some of which are brand new to the market this year — to consider for the loved ones on your list.
