About atelier mira
Atelier Mira is an optical concept store featuring independent handcrafted eyewear, sunglasses, and fine goods situated in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, NYC.
We challenge ourselves as well as all other non-black people to quietly reflect on what we learn and to then make positive changes within ourselves in order to bring a shift in the way we engage with black and brown people in our community. We hope to continue this societal momentum so that we debunk the centuries of history that has brought us to this moment and come to terms with the consequences of the many generations of white male supremacy.
We are committed to utilize the momentum of the #blm movement started in 2013 as an opportunity to support and empower more black voices into our community. We encourage you to do the same while supporting our action.
