It’s that time again — Black Friday. The day where people rush stores and websites to get great deals in time for the holidays. But Black Friday is going to be much different this year due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic. More people are opting to shop online rather than fight the crowds, especially when close groups are prime for spreading the novel virus.
Not only that, but heightened awareness around the Black community means more people are willing to shop at Black-owned businesses. We compiled a list of all the Black-owned businesses you can check out this Black Friday:
