I wish Apple had no political agenda and social justice goals to pursue.
All corporations should have political agendas and social justice goals. Without them, they're robotic cash machines and nothing more. The best companies have actual humans with beliefs, and they have every right to voice them. If you don't agree with them, there are less politically vocal companies you could support, but they're still participating in social justice and politics. Perhaps less vocally, but they all do it, and it helps to make this country a better place and push individuals fighting the social justice fight by lending a bigger support in the corner

Apart from self advertising and getting people to view Apples products, I'm struggling to see the connection here between a giant American consumer electronics corporation and Mr King Jnr's death?

Whether or not it's a genuine goal is open for debate, but all multi-billion dollar corporations have political agendas that serve their interests, and no amount of wishing is going to change this. However, I'm not sure why anyone would have an issue with pursuing the goal of equal rights, or remembering and honoring Martin Luther King Jr. on this day. *shakes head*

Normally, I count myself among the most cynical of individuals. In this case, I really can't find a reason to doubt Cook's sincerity. Love him or hate him, Cook's pretty transparent about his social justice stance. Honoring Dr. King fits that profile.

This is what I love about Apple and I have the strong believe and feeling this is not pure marketing but what the people leading this company stand for and believe in.

Meh. and nothing changes.
A picture on a website with a silly quote.
All that money overseas could have been spent backing a candidate whom wanted more equal rights. Its all smoke and mirrors.
Lets stick to the computers and stuff Tim.
