STF on OneSimpleAsk.com
Emily Everyday Abolitionist, Press, STF News, Survivor Stories 1
STF was recently featured on OneSimpleAsk.com. From their website: Every edition of the One Simple Ask blog revolves around a theme. Our current focus: the eco-friendly lifestyle. We’re examining how the production and consumption of clothing, personal care items, cosmetics, and other everyday goods and services fit into the local, national, and global marketplaces. We ask: What does a more ethical marketplace look like – and how do we get there? I was excited to learn about their blog because I think it’s a great resource for everyday abolitionists since a huge component of the abolitionist movement is ethical consumerism.

That’s right, being an everyday abolitionist is catching on. Note: The article lists an address for the STF Shop, but that’s an error; right now we’re only online and at special events.
