BLACK OWNED BUSINESS PART 1: RESTAURANTS
There has been a lot of talk about supporting black-owned businesses as of late. It is true that it is needed now more than ever, but the truth is, we should be supporting our local Black-owned businesses every day, not just in this time of need. This is why we put together this handy listing, to help change our habits and to support local. To start, we want to explore the variety of Black-owned restaurants Chicago has to offer.
