Support These Black-Owned Businesses in the Hudson Valley

If you are looking for a way to support the Black Lives Matter movement, a good way is to support black-owned businesses.

Black lives matter and I firmly believe and stand by that. There has been a rise in the movement since the death of George Floyd, a black man who was killed after a police officer suffocated him by having his knee on his neck for over eight minutes. There are plenty of ways to support the cause. Protests have been going on in the Hudson Valley. You can donate to a local bail fund to help protesters arrested while protesting. You can educate friends and family. And you can support black businesses.

Here is a list of black-owned restaurants and catering services in the Hudson Valley, thanks to Hidden Hudson Valley. If I missed any please let me know by emailing me at taylor@wrrv.com and I'll get it on the list as soon as I can!
