Business Waves Fess for Black Businesses

Who: Uber Eats

What did Uber Eats do to promote black businesses?

• Waves fees for black owned businesses through 2020
• The app will prompt people to a list of available Black-owned restaurants in your area

Did Uber make a statement on Black Lives Matters? Yes.

• “I wish that the lives of George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and countless others weren’t so violently cut short.”
• “I wish that institutional racism, and the police violence it gives rise to, didn’t cause their deaths. I wish that all members of our Black community felt safe enough to move around their cities without fear.” 
• “We know this isn’t enough. It won’t be enough until we see true racial justice. But we plan to work day in and day out to improve, learn, and grow as a company. Lastly, let me speak clearly and unequivocally: Black Lives Matter.”
