A couple years ago, I wrote a piece for
The Wall Street Journal lamenting how companies I patronize have turned increasingly political and woke. Many speciously echoed Democratic Party claims that Georgiaās recent voting law is racist without specifying how so. Others have been woke for a long time and are becoming more political by the day. I received many dozens of messagesāmore than Iāve ever received about anything Iāve ever writtenāand the piece generated nearly 2,000 comments on the WSJ website.
Most of those who wrote me asked if I had a list of woke companies. I did not. So I started an initial list based on ads in
The New York Times and the Washington Post, condemning what is really a fictitious assault on democracy and the right to vote. I wrote at the time to defend Georgiaās law and time has proven me correct as
minority turnout and turnout overall surged in Georgiaās primaries. Early voting for the general election has
set records, and
Black voter turnout has been massive. But donāt expect any of the woke corporations or the mainstream media to apologize for their Jim Crow 2.0 slurs.
Then, as other woke companies launched totally bogus attacks on Floridaās Parental Rights in Education law, which the media DISHONESTLY calls āDonāt Say Gayā even though thereās nothing in the law about saying āgay,ā my list grew. Other companies made the list for paying their employees to have abortions in other states. Then the list grew and grew as I started researching companies and my dear readers started sending me suggestions. (Keep āem coming!) If thereās no link below, it means they made the list for protesting election integrity legislation or Floridaās parental rights in education law. There are currently 434 woke companies on my list and I update it all the time!
