Dear Gap Inc.,
I have been a loyal customer of the Gap for many years- some
of my favorite clothes are from the Gap brands. Recently, however, I have been
ashamed to admit to my friends that I am a Gap customer. I was deeply shaken by
the factory fires in Bangladesh this past year. Those tragedies made me question the
integrity of the garment industry, and of Gap brands in particular.
I am glad that Gap
and other retailers have agreed to a “5 year safety plan” but I call on Gap Inc. to be a leader in the
industry by signing on to the Accord on Fire and Building Safety inBangladesh. I look forward to someday
being confident that the women and men who make my clothing work in a safe
environment, only then will I be a proud Gap customer again.
Sincerely,
Rev. Darcey Laine
