DESCRIPTION: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.\n\nJoin 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.\n\n--Hear 
 from Aisha with Palestinian Youth Movement’s Mask Off Maersk campaign and 
 Honor the Earth about taking on the underbelly of imperialism: the 
 logistics company Maersk that is responsible for shipping weapons and 
 military goods to the Israeli Ministry of Defense\n\n--Learn from Adan from 
 New Orleans Stop Helping Israel’s Ports (NOSHIP) about how to get started 
 with identifying local Maersk sites and demanding the company cut ties with 
 genocide\n\n--Get inspired by and plug into the Chevron: Stop Fueling 
 Genocide campaign to use boycott and divestment to pressure Chevron to 
 divest from extracting fuel for Israel from fields off the coast of 
 Palestine.\n\n https://www.indybay.org/newsitems/2024/11/08/18870650.php
