“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.
