Corporate America grapples with what to say about the coast-to-coast social justice protests that rocked the nation this weekend — or whether to say anything at all.

that read: “To be silent is to be complicit. Black lives matter. We have a platform, and we have a duty to our Black members, employees, creators and talent to speak up.”took down an episode of its satirical comedy show

"Patriot Act with Hasan Minhaj" that was critical of Saudi Arabia's rulers following the killing of Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi, so that the rest of the series could be aired in the kingdom. "Corporations get accused of being opportunistic at these moments in time and not being pure on these types of issues," said Harris Diamond, chief executive of marketing services firm McCann Worldgroup."One side says, ‘What’s your value?' and the other side says 'You don’t live up to it.' In the end it’s better to express your values.”

Show Trump we will not tolerate this any longer. Leave the riots out! Show your anger at the polls. Pass this along

Instead of saying anything let’s get them to do something Like forget the $1b profits and pay living wages and healthy working conditions instead of using ppl hard work to enrich themselves to a point that is utterly ridiculous

It's important to know what the brands think.

This Trumpian experiment has failed. When the country needed a leader, Trump turned off the lights and hid under the bed. VoteOutHate
