Happy Juneteenth fam! I hope you found a way to honor our ancestors’ struggle while celebrating our freedom. If you haven’t, consider supporting a Black owned business. Forbes reports that the pandemic has decimated Black small businesses and that while Black women were among the fastest growing group of entrepreneurs, lack of access to capital and financial resources is hampering their post-pandemic return. 

Using one of the Black women owned companies below to fulfill your travel dreams is a win-win for everyone. There are companies that specialize in trips to Africa, trips for millennials and even trips for teenage girls. This is by no means an exhaustive list so if you know of one that I missed, hit me up in the comments! Happy traveling!
