What is Woke-Washing? Just as greenwashing refers

What is Woke-Washing? Just as greenwashing refers to environmental buzzwords used as hollow marketing ploys, woke-washing describes brands co-opting the language of social justice movements and activism to appeal to socially conscious shoppers.
.
But be warned many of them are just after clicks or sales and their own business practices don’t reflect their language.
.
Here is a great article to read that will help you discern companies that are talking not walking the ethical journey.

Modern slavery is enabled by power imbalances. For

Modern slavery is enabled by power imbalances. For women and girls, this imbalance is exacerbated by gender inequality and discrimination, which is embedded in the fabric of our lives – the laws and social norms we live by, and the different expectations imposed on daughters as compared to sons. Countries with a greater gender gap across health, education, and economic status have higher prevalence of modern slavery.

Have you acted on this yet? We really need your help to help millions of slavery victims.
.
NSW is the 7th largest economy in Asia, and has expenditure in excess of $A80 billion. If Government procurement processes were to require a modern slavery risk assessment and statement for providers of goods and services, it would have an ENORMOUS IMPACT on addressing slavery in supply chains. This is something NSW needs to regulate or legislate for. (the Commonwealth does not have jurisdiction.)
.
Plus, incredibly, there is currently no NSW advocate for Modern Slavery in the government.
.
We need 20,000 signatures on a petition to force this to be debated in parliament.
It will only take you a couple of minutes. Here is the link:

https://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au/la/pages/epetitions-list.aspx

Here is more info:
It’s time to DO something that will significantly help end children being forced into slavery; women and men being worked to the bone with no pay and the criminals that exploit the poor and vulnerable in our world, lose their grip.

How can your signature make a difference? It will help activate a law in NSW (that was passed unanimously back in 2018) that will force large companies to source their products ethically.
.
This law is still not active. This is unacceptable. If big business stopped the demand for free/exploited labour, MILLIONS of people will be paid a living wage for their work.

Here is what we are asking the government:

We request that the Government implement the following aspects of the Act as soon as possible and not wait for the harmonisation on thresholds to occur.
Establishing the NSW Anti-Slavery Commissioner together with its public awareness and advisory functions;
Ensuring that goods and services procured by NSW Government agencies are not the product of modern slavery;
Increasing support and assistance for victims of modern slavery;
Forced Marriage;
On-line sexual exploitation of children; and
Addressing of tissue and organ harvesting and trafficking.

The steps for completing the ePetition are simple:
