Slick Woods just launched a jewelry line to benefit minority-owned businesses:
Slick Woods has just stepped into the jewelry business, and it will support a good cause. Today, she's launched CIVIL Jewelry, a brand that promises 20 percent of all proceeds to be invested straight back to businesses owned by minority individuals and women.
Blakely Thornton, former managing director of Jerry Media, whom Woods teamed up with among others to head CIVIL, added on the topic,"Having been behind the veil in advertising, we were seeing that the people actually making the money off of this culture are largely white, straight men. Even if you're pushing it and it's getting a positive media reception, it's disheartening seeing that the actual financial capital is going back to the same place, back to the top of that pyramid.
