Rick Ross并不孤独…Lil Wayne也被饮料公司踢出合同..
一天之后,Till基金会Mamie Till Mobley Foundation总监 Airicka Gordon-Taylor对事件回应:这决定很有纪念性,我们赞扬MD担负起更好的社会责任采取了措施…
“Back in February, when I first heard the lyrics, I was in utter shock, disappointment and sadness. Just as Mamie Till Mobley didn’t endure the pain of losing Emmett Till alone, many people have stood in solidarity with our family, even if it wasn’t the most popular stand to take. The road less traveled is surely not the easiest but standing for your principles provides the endurance needed to fight for human and civil rights. This decision was monumental, we commend Mountain Dew for taking action towards better social responsibility, and now I finally feel that we can exhale and focus on our beloved Mamie Till Mobley’s charge, “Let’s get on with the business of positive thinking and living”.”
