Laila Ali will host the second annual Black Business Marketplace Experience in celebration of Juneteenth on Saturday, June 19 at 9:00 a.m.
The event is part of Rapper Draze’s Building Black Wealth movement, which he founded after releasing his song.
The live virtual event will feature a full day of programming, including music performances, celebrity interviews, deals on Black-owned products and services, inspiring entrepreneurial stories, and more.
“I’m excited to team up again with Draze and the Building Black Wealth team for a second Juneteenth Building Black Wealth Marketplace. Last year’s event was very successful and brought much needed exposure to the participating businesses. This year we’re aiming to take it to the next level,” said Ali.
In 2020, the virtual event attracted over 25,00 viewers. For 2021, the Marketplace will introduce and highlight a new batch of innovative Black businesses from across the country.
Featured brands include Nature Boy-Grooming, Jacque Cosmetics, F&W Style-handbags, Laila Ali Lifestyle Brand, 3rd Eye View-glasses, and many others.
“I’m looking forward to the time when shopping with Black-owned businesses is normal and an essential daily habit,” said Ali.
