June is Pride Month and you are hard pressed to find a corporation in America that hasn’t shown support for the cause. Many are selling merchandise so you can support it too. But is all the corporate support for the right reasons? What should you look for to see if a company is truly an ally to the LGBTQ community and not just trying to cynically cash in? And could we see Juneteenth, just made a federal holiday, get the same sort of corporate attention? Dr. Jeffrey Boles, Associate Professor and Chair of the Legal Studies Department at Temple University’s Fox School of Business joins KYW Newsradio In Depth to talk about Pride around the world and the companies that are on board, for the right reasons, or for their own reasons.
