On Monday, Palmer, 30, took to Instagram with a fun “Call To Action” video to inspire shoppers around the world to support Black-owned businesses “100% of the time.”
In the short shoppable video, Palmer puts her spin on Crystal Waters’ classic house hit “100% Pure Love” to encourage consumers and fans to buy and support Black-owned businesses as a way to foster economic empowerment within the Black community.
“I’m always about my business, but I’m 100% about my Black-owned business,” the new mom and multi-talented star says before launching into a fun choreographed dance.
