In a new blog post, Gabe Ortiz of America’s Voice Education Fund summarizes the flood of voices from the business, financial, and entertainment worlds who joined the calls from demonstrators on the ground to condemn the Donald Trump Administration’s unconstitutional refugee and Muslim ban.
Included in the list are Airbnb co-founder and CEO Brian Chesky; Apple CEO Tim Cook; Box CEO Aaron Levie; Etsy CEO Chad Dickerson; Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg; GE CEO Jeff Immelt; Goldman Sachs’ CEO Lloyd Blankfein; Google CEO Sundar Pichai; JPMorgan; LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner; Lyft CEO Logan Green; Microsoft; Mozilla CEO Chris Bear; Netflix CEO Reed Hastings; Nike CEO Mark Parker; Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff; Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz; Twilio CEO Jeff Lawson; Twitter; Western Union CEO Hikmet Ersek; and Virgin Group founder Richard Branson.
And at last night’s Screen Actors Guild Awards, numerous celebrities and entertainment figures, including Ashton Kutcher; Julia Louis-Dreyfus; Taylor Schilling; Mahershala Ali; and Taraji P. Henson, slammed Trump’s ban, and offered their ongoing support to Muslims and refugees, including families who continued to be detained at airports.
