Shopping, dining, travel, finance, and more. All here so you're not searching for them one by one.
In Tulsa's Greenwood District, a dollar circulated at least 19 times inside the community before it left. That's where the name comes from. Black-owned marketplaces, directories, and digital platforms are already doing that same work, bringing Black businesses and experiences together and keeping dollars circulating where they're needed most.
Every dollar that circulates through a Black-owned platform is a step toward restoring what was taken.
