2021 Ushers in a New Era of Corporate Activism

In wake of last week’s insurrection at the United States Capitol building, we are seeing a new wave of corporate activism emerge. In the past, it was standard operating procedure for brands to steer clear of the political conversation altogether. And while in recent years we’ve seen companies take stances on political issues – such as access to voting, social justice and climate change – they would often stop short of calling out individual politicians or blocking resources to persons inciting hate and violence. This week, we examine how companies are breaking tradition to take more drastic steps around politics, in an effort to protect democracy.
