I stand in solidarity with those boycotting Amazon in response to its decision to roll back Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) initiatives. These initiatives were meant to create opportunities for underrepresented communities, and their removal is a step backward.
While my book, Deep & Raw: The Erotica of Martone, will remain on Amazon to support my partnership with LGBT Books to Prisoners, I am actively exploring additional retail options. I believe in using my voice and my work to uplift marginalized communities, and I will continue to do so in meaningful ways.
We all take action in different ways, and I encourage my supporters to stand firm in their beliefs while supporting platforms that reflect the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion.
