To boost a pioneering quarterback's odds of entering the Hall of Fame, Coors Light is running an ad campaign leaning on his Latino heritage. Coors' corporate PAC, however, sends a different message.
This expose is poignant and sadly, I assume bc I don't know other examples but seems logical, pervasive. Any other companies you know of that subscribe to this dichotomy of support.
Not top of mind. That said, there are a ton of brands that made posts and statements about BLM, but then donated to corporations that had terrible ratings from the NAACP or outright decried the movement (here's a good article on it: https://popular.info/p/the-nbas-corporate-sponsors-donated). The difference is these companies weren't as brazen--they're still brazen--as Coors because they didn't put an entire ad campaign behind their statement.
Coors is unique because not only are they supporting a movement, they're putting an entire campaign behind the idea of the importance of immigrants, tacitly saying that we should be more accepting. Despite this, they donate heavily to anti-immigrant causes.
