Building a People’s Arms Embargo: How to divest from weapons companies profiting from Gaza genocide

Описание: It's our role to stop the weapons: we know that 70% of Israel’s genocide has been paid for by U.S. tax dollars, and both the policymakers and the profiteers of genocide live & work here in the United States. When the masses of people coalesce around strategic campaigns against mega-corporations, we transform the economic outlook of apartheid Israel, pressuring the powerful to cut ties with genocide.

Join us to learn about a series of strategic BDS campaigns for companies, institutions, and governments to cut ties with genocide, called the People’s Arms Embargo. We can win, like the movement for divestment from South African apartheid before us, but first we need to win campaigns that politically and economically isolate corporations that send weapons to Israel. We’ll share new resources and lessons on this expanding area of BDS work.
