If you follow TSM, you know we are all about philanthropy and social justice. How horribly sad that the homophobic Blake Mycoskie is in bed with Focus on the Family.
Mycoskie’s company TOMS, donates a pair of shoes for every pair of shoes purchased. I could so easily support this and get behind this type of philanthropy, save that Mycoskie and his company TOMS supports one of the quintessential hate groups, Focus on the Family, which was named as a Hate Group by the Southern Poverty Law Center. I am now calling for a full Boycott of TOMS Shoes! Mr. Mycoskie, if you would like to chime in here, please do. I’m curious how you will justify funding and partnering with a well recognized Hate Group. Click hereto see the full article.
