Brixton Says No To Nike Naked Greed
No Nike | 27.11.2003 00:15 | Social Struggles | London | Sheffield
Nike open their newest UK store in London's Brixton tomorrow morning. Late tonight a 6 foot "No to Nike Naked Greed" Bbanner appeared across the front window.
Nike are following their US strategy of targetting urban black youth as their key demographic, all the way to Brixton in South London.
Seems Brixton isn't ready to welcome them with open arms!
Late tonight, on the eve of opening, someone has posted a 6 ft banner across the window proclaiming "No To Nike Naked Greed - End Sweatshops".
Naught, naughty!
By the way - No Sweat are holding their annual get togetherat Sheffield University Students' Union this weekend. Speakers from Colombia, USA, Iraq, Belgium - even Brixton! Plus films, practical workshops... More details, agenda, bookings etc at www.nosweat.org.uk
