Yas Queen Slay Hunty: The Problem of Corporate Rainbow-Washing During Pride
Another June, another year of corporations swearing they support the LGBTQ+ community - just look at their logo!
For $15.99, you can support the community, too! This week, the BROADs kick off Pride month by dissecting “rainbow-washing”: what it is and how it’s almost become best practice for businesses to profit off of the LGBTQ+ community in June, without really backing up their promises. But when there are over 500 anti-LGBTQ+ bills introduced in state legislatures (45 having been enacted so far this year), are “Live Laugh Lesbian” shirts enough to show your “support” of the community?
