By a Tired Black Woman

I is tired.

But that’s not why I’m here.

Happy Black History Month!

Here are 10 ways to support and celebrate:

1. Contribute to a Black family impacted by the Altadena fires

2. Subscribe to the PAID content of a Black creator

(If you’re a free subscriber of Poverty Sucks, consider upgrading or joining my Patreon!)

3. Order a Black Sci Fi book from a Black Owned bookstore

(Check out The Broken Earth Trilogy by N.K. Jemisin from Harriet’s Bookshop)

4. Find a local Black farm to support at the Black Farmers Index

5. Purchase my 2025 Black Business Guides with 500+ Black Owned brands!

6. Order a customized Black Business Guide for your city ($250)

7. Set up a recurring monthly contribution to a Black woman

(Don’t think you’ll remember? Set a reminder!)

8. Move your money to a Black owned Bank

9. Pre-pay for wellness services at a Black owned yoga studio or spa that they can pay forward

10. Swap out an item each week/month with a Black owned brand
