Supporting Indigenous Companies
SHOP INDIGENOUS!
Small indigenous businesses and entrepreneurs have for a long time, worked to build back the wealth of culture and community stripped from them though-out history. Whether displaced by government systems, limited to reservations, or haunted by high unemployment, slum housing, or racist treatment, they have experienced some of the harshest histories and remained resilient in cultural pride.
By supporting more Indigenous-owned companies, you can help create more opportunities for meaningful savings, property ownership, credit building, and generational wealth for those still living in or around indigenous communities. similar to shopping black or Latin, if we all do our part in supporting indigenous entrepreneurs, then we’re helping with the progression of strengthening these communities. Supporting indigenous/black/Hispanic businesses shouldn’t be a trend; it should be a lifestyle. Here are some shops to support:
