If you shop in Target, it's hard to miss her products. What are your thoughts regarding still supporting minority owned business in Target?

Hard to believe Target, founded by Democratic Gov. Mark Dayton's family, is caving in. I say keep buying products supporting Women of Color and all People of Color otherwise they will disappear from shelves and be replaced. Make sure Target knows what you are buying and why.

I wonder what pressure was exerted on them to first, change course and second, go public with it. Why flip like that unless threatened some sort of way?
