WASHINGTON, D.C. - The Washington Wizards have launched Black-Owned DMV, a campaign to highlight local Black-owned businesses during February home games in celebration of Black History Month and will debut on Feb. 2 as the Wizards take on the Trail Blazers at 8:00 p.m.
The Wizards will integrate six local Black-owned businesses into their home game presentations through a digital content initiative. The video series will feature pregame announcements and exclusive interviews dedicated to sharing each business’ unique story.
The six Black-owned businesses include a range of trades and were hand-picked directly on recommendations from Wizards players and team staff.
