In Honor of Black History Month, Please Join Meyers Nave in Supporting Black-Owned Businesses
Black History Month is a time to pay tribute and honor Black women and men who have made significant contributions to America, who have made a profound impact on our nation’s history, and who have made civil rights a fundamental measure of social progress. While it is intended to be a time of celebration, it is also a time to reflect on the continuing struggle against racial injustice and racial inequity that persist in our country. Black History Month is an opportunity to improve the understanding of Black history, to recognize what Black people have both lost and achieved, and honor the Black women and men of today who are making a difference for tomorrow.
In that spirit, and in honor of Black History Month, Meyers Nave’s Diversity Committee invites you to join us in supporting Black-owned businesses. Supporting and increasing the number of Black-owned businesses is critical to reducing racial economic disparities and closing racial gaps in employment opportunities. Successful Black-owned businesses also help inspire Black youth to pursue their dreams and provides a visual representation of success in the community. Below is a partial list of Black-owned businesses in areas where Meyers Nave has offices – Los Angeles, Oakland, Sacramento, San Diego and Santa Rosa. We encourage everyone to patronize and support these and other Black-owned businesses this month, and every month.
