SYRACUSE — Black Citizens Brigade (BCB), a vintage clothing business featuring curated labels from the 1960s through 1980s, is getting ready to open a storefront in downtown Syracuse.

BCB, owned by Cjala Surratt, has until now operated online and through local pop-up shops and events. The business is planning to open a brick-and-mortar store in the University Building at 120 E. Washington St. this October, according to the Black Citizens Brigade Instagram page. It’s the former location of Bradley’s Jewelers.

BCB racks will “boast heirloom inventory and unique fashion finds. BCB uses era-specific styles to prompt conversations about Black history, culture and fashion,” according to its Facebook profile.
