GAP does a nice thing after ad of Sikh model is vandalized

Rina Evans · Nov 27, 2013

We have all these depressing news around, so I thought I'd post a nice little 'Yay' when companies act like they actually care.

An ad featuring a Sikh man was vandalized, so GAP responded to the tweet pointing it out and changed their Twitter pic to the photo from the ad.

Hi, Rina.

It's a great story. It's just: :nothing

Didn't want you to feel ignored.

Glad to hear some nice news, though it's a shame it had to be prompted by intolerant vandalism.

Good on GAP. That's the best way to handle that.

A wonderful response from The Gap. I actually cried when I read the article. It doesn't help that I'm highly emotional right now, but I probably would have cried anyway. I despise any kind of intolerance...racial or otherwise. I LOVE to read stories where intolerance is treated in this way. The Gap took care of business. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing, Rina. (-:
