Cancel Culture & Corporate Boycotts: Do They Work?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Welcome to the You Can Call Me Karen Podcast! In this first episode of our two-part series on cancel culture, we explore the history of boycotts and the growing trend of “canceling” businesses. Is it effective to cancel companies over controversial actions? What are the consequences of this type of protest? We examine the evolution of corporate boycotts and its role in activism. Tune in as we discuss whether canceling businesses truly drives change or simply creates publicity for the organization with questionable practices.
