Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions #
Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) is a nonviolent Palestinian-led movement promoting boycotts, divestments, and economic sanctions against Israel. Its objective is to pressure Israel to meet what the BDS movement describes as Israel’s obligations under international law, defined as withdrawal from the occupied territories, removal of the separation barrier in the West Bank, full equality for Arab-Palestinian citizens of Israel, and “respecting, protecting, and promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties”. The movement is organized and coordinated by the Palestinian BDS National Committee.

Holiday Shopping #
This post is meant for educational purposes, and was independently researched from information found on the internet. If any information provided is incorrect, please let us know. The holiday season can be tough for many reasons, and this post is made with nothing but best intentions. We can only do our best in a world run by capitalism; it’s hard to avoid supporting companies that do not have our best interests in mind - those who are about profit over people.
We hope this post can help you navigate your holiday shopping!
Halloween #
Don’t get tricked (into supporting monsters) this Halloween!
These posters are for educational purposes. We acknowledge that the current system is designed to keep us buying from companies that invest in things that go against our best interests, and that with the cost of living on the rise, affordability is challenging. Knowledge is power. These posters are meant to bring awareness, not guilt. Small changes create big impacts. We all have to start somewhere.
