WHAT'S HAPPENING IN BANGLADESH ? #PAYUP MOVEMENT --- A THREAD
There are over 4.1 million Bangladeshi garments workers who are NOT being paid. This is not only a financial crisis, but a humanitarian crisis waiting to unfold if we don’t act now. please read:
Brands like @jcpenney @fashionnova @walmart @primark @forever21 @levis @sears @topshop @burton_menswear @kohls @urbanoutfitters @freepeople @anthropologie @gap @childrensplace @mothercareuk to take action FAST.
The Kendall + Kylie fashion line and @Diddy's Sean jean line operates under the The Global Bread Group, which has cancelled orders worth billions and refuses to pay their suppliers. these orders were made in February and March, and the suppliers have not received any payment.
The cancellation of orders was said to be due to a drop in sales. "Given the unpredictability of the situation, our retail partners have cancelled orders, and existing inventory and product in production may have no sell-through” states CEO of the Global Brands Group.
Global Brands Group makes millions in profit, yet doesn’t have enough to pay the garment workers.
we've been commenting on Kylie's instagram to pay the workers but HER TEAM IS DELETING THE COMMENTS
@KylieJenner’s official instagram was reportedly deleting and disabling comments from her post that demanded rightful payment of garment workers
They has very recently replied to a comment stating that the Kendall+Kylie label is ‘not currently’ associated with the Global Brands Groups. However, as per our research they were still enlisted on the OFFICIAL website under the ‘Kids section’ up until recently (June 23, 2020).
THEIR LABEL IS STILL LISTED UNDER THE KIDS SECTION IN THE GLOBAL BRANDS GROUP'S OFFICIAL WEBSITE.
most of the clothes we wear have tags written "Made in Bangladesh". if you find at least one, you are already on the spectrum of the ongoing injustice.
