TARGET ACTION
Grand street, Manhattan, NYC. June 2018. Performance by Janine Cunningham and Alejandro Chellet.
Janine Cunningham and Alejandro Chellet performing as Target employees, passing out flyers that said:
"WE'RE YOUR NEW NEIGHBORS. And we want you to know, we CARE... Corporate Responsibility At Target, we put the needs of neighbors first and we're working towards making our communities feel safe and represented! Foster Communities We ensure members and workers thrive. For example, we took the lead in April of 2018. After denying 41,000 jobs to African-Americans and Latinos, we paid $3.7 million in a class action racial bias lawsuit — that's the equivalent of 4% of our total revenue for 2017! Wow!" |
