The “#TargetFast” coincides w/ #Lent & is the latest #consumer action against one of the largest retail companies in the country. Since #Target announced that it would roll back some #DEI efforts, including plans to hire from underrepresented groups, consumer #boycotts & demonstrations have sprung up across the country. Many occurred during #Black History Month, & on Feb 28, consumers participated in a 24hr“economic blackout” of major corporate chains.
Starting Wed, >100k people, many of them parishioners at #BlackChurches, are pledging to abstain from shopping at #Target, part of a 40-day nationwide #boycott of the retail giant more than a month after the company abandoned its #diversity, #equity & #inclusion initiatives.
The effort, led by prominent faith & #CivilRights leaders such as Pastor Jamal Bryant, includes Atlanta, Houston, Jacksonville, & Alexandria.
