Palace Pledges $1 Million USD to Black Lives Matter & Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust

“This ain’t some band wagon shit btw.”

Streetwear giant Palace has just made a pledge to donate $1,000,000 USD throughout 2020 following the protests for racial justice across the world, starting with Black Lives Matter and Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust. In a statement published on Instagram, the label announces its support for protestors across the world, saying, “we stand firmly with all protesters seeking justice against police brutality and racism,” adding that “this ain’t some band wagon shit btw.”

Palace finishes the statement explaining that, “it just took a hot minute to figure out if I could drum up a mill by the end of the year and work out what we’re going to do long-term.” Read the full statement over on Palace’s Instagram page.  It remains to see what comes next from the streetwear giant.
