Meet Jaz
Hey Loves! A little bit about me--I'm a foodie to my core! I love trying new foods in my home state Alabama and during my travels. When I'm not trying new foods, I am exploring new fashion trends, enhancing my home décor and enjoying life's simple luxuries. I am also very passionate about empowering the Black community and celebrating Black culture. I always prioritize supporting Black owned businesses and I am so excited to highlight these businesses on Palate for Culture. Thank you for visiting; I hope you enjoy!
Why Support Black Owned Businesses?
The wealth gap between Black and White Americans is staggering: the typical White family has 8x the wealth of the typical Black family1. Throughout history, attempts to attain Black wealth have been stifled by racially motivated acts of violence ,such as The Tulsa Massacre2 and discriminatory laws, policies, and practices that continue to impact Black wealth today3.
Palate for Culture celebrates Black owned foods, fashion and lifestyle in Birmingham, AL and beyond. By spreading awareness about Black owned businesses, I hope to contribute to the generational wealth of Black families and take steps toward true economic equality.
