Hold up! Just when everyone thought the long‑running Target boycott was finally coming to a triumphant end, Pastor Jamal Bryant had to hit rewind and apologize — because his victory lap turned into a massive faceplant! 😬🔥


Here’s the tea ☕: Bryant (yes, the megachurch pastor who helped bring national attention to the #TargetBoycott movement) boldly declared that the protest — which lasted almost a year — was officially over because he claimed Target met most of the movement’s demands. He said he’d seen what he thought was real progress and victory. But guess what? The streets weren’t having it. 😒✊🏾


After massive pushback from activists and everyday folks online who said the fight is far from finished — and definitely not his to end — Bryant took to video to say the infamous words: “I made assumptions that were not true.” Oof! 🗣️💥


In other words? He admitted he jumped the gun, misread what the community wanted, and tried to wrap it all up too quickly. 🙃💁🏾‍♀️ And the backlash? Let’s just say people were NOT impressed 😅 — with many reminding him that this wasn’t just his personal show but a movement led by grassroots voices.


Some organizers are STILL saying the boycott’s real purpose — demanding corporate accountability and structural change from Target — hasn’t been fulfilled. So while one leader tried to call timeout, the rest of the movement is still in the ring. 🥊🔥


Moral of the story: Don’t speak for the streets if the streets haven’t spoken 🛑📢 — especially when activism, history, and real community demands are on the line.
