I worked in factories and warehouses for almost a decade. A lot of times more than 60 hours a week. I made good money but was always too exhausted to enjoy it. I remember saying to myself several times it has to be more to life. I started praying and seeking my purpose like never before and after visiting Essence Fest in New Orleans in 2018, I decided I wanted to create a brand. But not just any brand one with a purpose, one that would impact my community and in 2019, Made with Blkluv was born.
Made with Blkluv is a streetwear brand dedicated to changing the narratives of the black community. There are so many negative narratives attached to us as a people, we don't support one another, we don't love one another, put too many of us in a room together and we're going to fight one another, man the list goes on. I created this brand to uplift our community instead of tearing it down. Our mission is to dismantle the negative narratives that have been attached to us for decades. And I truly believe we can do this with love.
If we loved one another more there would be less crime in our communities. If we supported one another more we would be able to keep the black dollar black longer. If we loved ourselves a little more, we would focus on our mental health and heal from our childhood traumas. I truly believe the cure is love.
I want to personally thank you for visiting my store. Whether this is your first time or 100th time I truly appreciate you for helping me spread the message of unity and love.
With Blkluv,
Delicia Brown
CEO/Founder of Made with Blkluv
