Hey NT,
THIS ISN'T ABOUT FREE SHOES
In light of the current state of race relationships that have been magnified by the execution of young Mike Brown, I suggested in that thread that we do something.
If you don't agree or think this is stupid, then by all means, block me, ignore the thread. Please do not troll.
I'm asking NT to help spread the word thru social media. Get all these artists who advertise for JB and other brands on IG to quit for the month of September. I'm asking NTers to NOT purchase any releases in September and donate to the Michael Brown fund.
The gist of the movement is this.
- Let's not buy sneakers in September -whether you buy 1 pair a month or 10.
- Instead, let's donate that money, or a part of it, to the Michael Brown fund.
- While supporting the movement we bring awareness to our cause.
- Not buying from the big business is just another way to show solidarity to the black community who is organizing a don't spend money day.
It may seem futile to some but if WE band together, hurt their pockets, THEY WILL HAVE TO LISTEN.
Please contribute, POSITIVELY, so we can begin this fight.
We cannot continue to turn our cheek at the racial injustice being practiced in America. Our dollars are the most important to these big companies and we need to show them that.
