   As an Amazon affiliate, I earn a percentage from purchases with my referral links. MY AMAZON AFFILIATION IS NOT RELATED TO BLAVITY PARTNERS NOR WILL THEY RECEIVE ANY EARNINGS FROM THIS POST. I know some consumers are choosing to boycott Amazon for its DEI removal. However, after thinking about this thoroughly, I want to continue promoting cool products from small businesses, women-owned businesses and (specifically) Black-owned businesses who still feature their items on Amazon. As of the first date of Black History Month 2025, each new post will ALWAYS include a MINIMUM of one product sold by a Black-owned business. (I have visited the seller’s official site to verify that Amazon Black-owned logo.) I am (slowly) doing this with older, popular posts too. If you still choose to boycott, I 100% respect that decision.
