Beyond the Swoosh

We can do things as individuals such as buy non sweatshop items and consciously choose where our products come from. As a communities we can raise awareness throughout our circles. We can tell people about Jim and Leslie work and mission. We can encourage people to do their part by paying attention to what they buy and maybe signing a petition or raising awareness themselves too. I think that bycotting would be an extremely effective way of getting the companies attention but it needs to be on a large scale one hundred people stopping the purchase of those products will not even be registered on the sales chart at the company's office. As a Catholic and a human I feel obligated to stop buying these products. I feel like I should be trying to help in any way I can if that means raising awareness or signing a petition, I will 'just do it.'
