Taylor Lorenz & Matt Bernstein on the beige-ification of Pride:

From the aisles of Target to the Instagram feeds of big brands, the rainbow logos are gone & the merch shelves are empty.

This is quite obvious when you stop & notice how retailers position inclusion with respect to their brand. It’s business & political strategy taking priority over moral fortitude. I’m thankful to work for a retailer that stays true to its values by elevating the voices of Co-Op members & staff who are part of (and allies to) the LGBTQ+ community not only in June, but year round.
