The Shift

The Target boycott was supposed to “protect the Black community,” but the first people it harmed were Black-owned brands. In this episode, Von Lee breaks down the real consequences of the boycott, the brands that were dropped, the founders who begged the community not to boycott, and the financial realities nobody wanted to talk about. This isn’t outrage. This is a strategy. And the truth is simple: corporations survive boycotts, Black brands don’t.
