Hey followers,
I don't normally jump on band wagons for this kind of things but this one really bothered me! I had heard that Target announced that they did make a mistake and that they need to take further steps to look into a cause before they support them. I did not know that Best Buy had supposedly donated to the same cause. The following is from a email I received. I like this approach because its not asking for a boycott of the two companies but rather send a letter asking them to make it right by matching their donation to someone who will stand for equality as well! Please take a few moments out of your day to help send a very important message to these companies!
The Following is from a email newsletter sent to me via care2
Target and Best Buy have donated $250,000 to a political committee supporting a rabidly anti-equality candidate for Governor of Minnesota - a man with ties to a Christian rock band that advocates violence and death to gays.
Urge Target and Best Buy to support equality »
The news is all the more shocking because both of these companies have long records of providing fair and equitable workplaces for their lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) employees. Stand up for equality »
It's time to make things right. The very least the companies can do is to make equivalent donations to groups that support equality candidates.
