Edelman, a private company, represents a who's who of major firms that are on the front lines of today's more socially-conscious approach to PR. They include Starbucks (SBUX), which in 2018 shut down 8,000 US stores for racial bias training following the arrest of two Black men waiting for a business meeting in a Philadelphia shop; and Unilever (UL) — parent company of the famously political Ben & Jerry's, as well as such brands as Lipton and Dove — which recently pledged to spend more than $2 billion with suppliers owned and managed by women or people of color.
Edelman's client list also includes Microsoft (MSFT), PayPal (PYPL) Merck (MKGAF), Petco, Under Armour (UA) and HP (HPE), six of the more than 200 companies whose leaders have spoken out this month against Georgia's controversial new "election integrity" law.
Just 10 years ago, it was still considered taboo for most companies to risk alienating customers by taking stands on divisive political issues. But Ross said Edelman's widely referenced consumer research shows that major brands can no longer afford to sit on the fence.
Yeah... then a majority will come here and vote Democrat. Little do they know the democrats are the very party that invented the KKK, Jim Crow laws and racism.
And they voted against Blacks getting the vote, equal rights, etc.Yeah... then a majority will come here and vote Democrat. Little do they know the democrats are the very party that invented the KKK, Jim Crow laws and racism.
It’s pretty big of you to admit it. Good for you.Oh, the Democrats invented racism? I was wondering who did that.
fictionHoly crap!
Liz Cheney speaking live in front of the House right now.
Can't believe I'm proud of a Cheney.
Country over party/cult.
She's is going to burn Trump down.
The Kevin McCarthy's of the world are done.
One talking head said it best just now:
The Democratic Party was founded in 1828. It's good to know that racism didn't exist in this country or any other prior to that year. I'm sure the 3.5 million African slaves brought to the U.S., Jamaica, Hispaniola. Martinique. Barbados, and Brazil prior to 1828. would be happy to know that racism didn't exist yet. It's good to know that no wars were ever started based on differing skin color. I'm sure the native people of North America, Central America,, South America, Australia, New Zealand, New Guinea and more are happy that racism had nothing to do with their genocide. I'm sure that all of the parts of the world colonized by other parts are grateful for the conquering in the name of God, King, Country. everything but racism.It’s pretty big of you to admit it. Good for you.
I’m sorry. I should have been more specific. Democrats shaped modern racism. There, does that make you feel better?The Democratic Party was founded in 1828.
