Black Pride and the Black Pound

If You Don't Know

Available for over a year

Black Pride is back this summer, so the co-founder, Lady Phyll, stops by to talk about why she set up the movement and why it’s so important to the black and POC LGBTQ+ community. We also get into Black Pound Day with its founder, Swiss, from So Solid Crew. They’ve just opened a new shop where black-owned businesses can sell their stuff. And Jamelia Donaldson, who set up Treasure Tress, tells De-Graft that it’s really not that hard to change your shopping habits to support black entrepreneurs.
