ALT Quote from book: “When a company’s purpose is deeply embedded and not just superficial, when it is enduring and not ephemeral, stakeholders will buy from, work for, or invest in this new generation of purposeful brands.”

“Police officers are not Navy Seals, Army Rangers or Marines. They do not have the training, leadership, ethics and discipline of the US Armed Forces, let alone the most elite combat units. The militarization of American policing has been a disaster.”open.substack.com/pub/steves…

The @nytimes has been providing a platform for transphobic hate & propaganda, with horrifying consequences. Texas just entered NYT articles into evidence to push for the TX Dept of Family & Protective Services to take trans kids away from their supportive parents.

I cannot think of anything that helps women’s rights less than pinning the blame on trans women. They face so much violence and scrutiny as is. Leave them alone and focus on the real war on women. It’s happening in the courts and legislatures around this country.

1, Right NOW in Poland, millions of women across the country are striking after the newly elected right-wing government banned abortion. The massive women's protests are the largest in modern Poland history, women are refusing to go to work, drive, cook at home,
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The protests are not current.

The Poland Women's Strike took place Oct 22, 2020 to Dec 13, 2020 but failed to prevent the law from going into effect, and "appear to be at a dead end", per

Himesh Patel's performance was incredible.
Already depressed about the idea of Himesh Patel's work in #StationEleven not getting recognized at the Emmys. Ep. 9 was an incredible tour de force that few actors could have pulled off with so much grace and compassion. Remember the name, this guy is going places

Ahoy editors: Not every story is a @soljourno story. Breaking news, profiles, reviews, etc don't fit the mold. But there's a close relationship btw public service journalism & solutions stories. This article by @MicheReports helps map a process: medium.com/lets-gather/servi…

#ESG has come under attack from some powerful people. But are these criticisms reason to dismiss all responsible investing? No way, writes @TimNashCFP in this #oped. If anything, the "attacks show that we’re on the right track – we’ve got their attention."
