Meet The Owner

Charmane, a proud East Palo Alto native, has always been deeply connected to her community and culture. After earning an AA in Liberal Arts from De Anza Community College, she went onto graduate with a BA in Sociology from California State University, Dominguez Hills in 2019. Inspired by her passion for streetwear and her dedication to uplifting her community, she founded Black and Brown Empowerment. This brand represents the power, resilience, and creativity of communities of color through bold and meaningful designs. Charmane’s mission is to create clothing that not only makes a statement but also gives back to the communities that
have shaped her journey.
