Idk about the rest of the American, but I don't EVER plan to go back to walmart, target, amazon any meta apps, toyota etc. It's not a boycott for me it's a complete withdrawal. #blacksky #bluesky #shopblackowned #blackowned

That's why they've lost billions. We're still boycotting Walmart as well. #shoplocal #shopblackowned #ifyoucan

Just a reminder that we’re still in full #Boycott of #Target.

They’ve decided Black and Brown people aren’t worth focusing on, so neither are our dollars.

🖍️ Sometimes, the most radical thing we can do is slow down and remind ourselves: I am enough. ✨
You don’t have to earn rest—you already deserve it.

📌 Tag me if you color this—I’d love to see!
