Business - Market for the Holidays
Market for the Holidays ACROSS THE AFRICAN CONTINENT and African Diaspora there is no one way to celebrate the special end-of-year days that represent our belief, heritage and honor systems but celebrate we do. In addition to the usual sharing of joy this year we all recognize the challenge that nature has placed upon us all - the COVID-19 pandemic. What ever our families do to celebrate this year consider starting with identifying those in our city, town or village that can supply what we need. The more we spend or exchange with each other, the stronger our local and regional economies will be as we go through this special challenge period. Check labels and Brands to be sure that the items you purchase or trade for were made in your nation or a neighboring nation. Support the artists and creatives, the cooks and chefs, tailors and seamstresses, shoe makers, etal. Look for the listings and catalogs like those shown on this page and search the Internet using your phone to find the gifts and foods that will be enjoyed during this season. We all need to celebrate during this special season and special challenge. Take time to lift your spirits and share some joy with others. The articles on the next few pages oer some ideas for sharing. Enjoy.
