YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

June is Pride Month, a time when companies show their support for and celebration of the LGBTQ+ community. But this year, right-wing backlash has forced some to rethink Pride. Boycotts, employee harassment and threats of violence prompted companies to pull back plans. William Brangham discussed this with Bob Witeck of Witeck Communications, a firm specializing in LGBTQ+ marketing.
