On Not Buying Coca-Cola Products

I do like my Cuba Libres. As a rule, I use some of the tastier rums such Meyer’s Plantation Punch or Rhum Barbancourt. The traditional drink is made with Coca-Cola, as I have done for many years. I have switched back to using Royal Crown Cola. No longer will I buy any Woka-Cola products. The company can “re-think” its position all it wants. The die is cast. The damage has been done.

“[W]e must put our resources and energy toward helping end the cycle of systemic racism…We will invest our resources to advance social justice causes. We will use the voices of our brands to weigh in on important social conversations. For example, today we are announcing $2.5 million in grants from The Coca-Cola Foundation for the Equal Justice Initiative to assist advocates and policymakers in the critically important work of criminal justice reform; the NAACP Legal Defense Fund in support of the “Policing Reform Campaign;” and the National Center for Civil and Human Rights to deliver a platform to bring people together for powerful conversations that matter and inspire social change and their current “Campaign for Equal Dignity.”
