In March, the #PayUp campaign launched to stop one of the biggest heists in fashion history. “And in terms of its direct financial impact on workers, it’s probably the most successful campaign on worker rights in the apparel supply chain ever.” https://t.co/ddrbxZcjJ4

“Mr. Abloh sent a lengthy statement to The Times addressing the issue of racism and clarifying his posts, and then decided to rescind it. A spokesman texted that he had no comment for the moment, as “he has changed his mind in how he will respond.” https://t.co/s6vlD59pzL

I would feel better about things if Mommy Pig from “Peppa Pig” read all the news. So calming. So soothing. I not only believe her. I want to hear what her metaphysical worldview is.

The coronavirus brings trouble to Cambodia's garment industry. Not because of Covid-19 infections, but because a fast shrinking amount of orders. Tens of thousands of workers are losing their job. https://t.co/T3PgV5FKtj

In recent months, humankind learned how important it is to listen to scientific experts when they warn us about epidemics. Now how about listening to their warnings regarding ecological collapse? The current global crisis is an opportunity to stop learning the hard way. #EarthDay

@AldenWicker Probably this is a sweatshop located in old Dhaka (karaniganj). The place looks familiar to me and they only produce clothes for the local market. They want to highlight the fact that they are adapting their production. Please check out my reportage: https://t.co/5Qct4gKSx4

To defeat epidemics we need to trust science and countries need to trust each other. Irresponsible politicians undermined this trust. We need to regain it. You can’t defeat a pandemic with propaganda and isolation. The real antidote is scientific knowledge and global cooperation.
