What does it really mean for fast fashion brands to #payup?
In this episode, I explore what it actually means for fast fashion brands to pay up and which movements/charities/organisations are championing this. **Trigger warning for this episode around an incident in a factory*** Many movements are arising against the capitalistic fast fashion industry, over the last decade or so many non-profit organisations have set their intent on transforming the industry by holding fast fashion brands accountable on many fronts and it's paying off in amazing ways!

**Episode correction:** the #payup campaign has ended. It garnered $22 billion from more than 25 major brands, including H&M, Zara, Gap Inc., Calvin Klein, Target, for orders they placed prior to the pandemic, making it one of the most successful worker rights campaigns in modern fashion history.
