Actually... it´s when commercialism gets entwined that social justice happens faster. Gay rights were sped up due to gays becoming an upcoming market w/ lots of disposable income for products the heterossexual family man and were not up to spending money on. Fashion, real state, tourism, sports cars.
Inclusive action is a capitalist thing at it´s core: everyone is a buyer. Grant´s thing here is pure american businness mentality at work and that´s great.
