Gigi Hadid Wants You to Support Black Owned Businesses
Model Gigi Hadid is continuing her support to end police brutality and racial injustice.
The model had written in a recent Instagram post that she was, “Enraged. Sickened. Heartbroken. But never surprised.” This comes after the recent murder of George Floyd. The model is urging for changes to be made to prevent these events from continuing.
Hadid believes that we should do more to support Black Americans and is encouraging her followers to support black-owned businesses. In a recent Tweet, Hadid asked her followers to leave comments detailing businesses that people should support during this time.
Black businesses (of all kinds) !!!!! Pls reply below with what you sell and your info so people can see you and find you and BUY FROM YOUUUUU ❤️
