Patagonia is donating $1 million to various voting rights groups as a direct response to Georgiaâs restrictive voting law. They are just one of many âwokeâ corporations that have spoken out against legislation that gives undeniable Jim Crow vibes.
According to a lengthy press release on Monday, the clothing company condemned Republican Governor Brian Kemp for signing legislation that directly responds to the 2020 Presidental election that caused a landslide loss for Donald Trumpâs run for a second term. Â
Actions speak louder than words.
