Black Out: National Boycott – Shop at the Black Vendor Market

Black People are pledging to halt discretionary spending for 24 hours on Feb. 28 in protest of major retailers scaling back diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives in response to President Donald Trump’s policies.

The nationwide economic blackout, organized by The People’s Union USA, targets companies like Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN), Walmart (NYSE:WMT), and Best Buy (NYSE:BBY), urging participants to hold off spending in stores and online.

The boycott comes as a reaction to Trump’s perceived war on DEI. His executive orders have cut federal DEI programs and threaten to freeze funds for non-compliant companies, leading to the closure of PBS’s DEI office and prompting corporations to dissolve their own initiatives. “If we disrupt the economy for just ONE day, it sends a powerful message,” The People’s Union USA said on its website.
