#StopHateForProfit

There is a current campaign to stop the hate for profit that is happening on Facebook. As the platform has refused to take effective actions to stem the flow of racism and hateful organizing.

Now more and more companies are speaking up by either fully stopping their advertising on Facebook until meaningful change is made or follow the campaign and stop their advertising and activities on Facebook for the month of July.

This is a personal message to create awareness for companies who over the last months have increased their awareness of anti-racism and are looking for how to take action. This is one way to take action.

Spread the word!

Some big brands that have joined the campaign:

The North Face
