In the realm of allydom, choosing not to spend money at restaurants, venues, or shops that promote racism, sexism, nationalism, or any other -ism that speaks to you is an easy action. You simply don’t patronize the establishment in question. “Voting with your wallet,” a phrase I’ve truly loathed as long as I’ve known it (not unlike financial conservatism, a made-up term that means literally nothing at all), is something that requires so little that we do it without thinking. I don’t shop at Walmart, but I don’t consciously think about boycotting them anymore, it barely even registers. It is less of an action, and more of a passive statement. 

But what happens when the company you work for is the organization in question? What happens when your company is complicit in the actions of its owners, or even worse, when the corporate structure requires complicity?
