DESCRIPTION:Since 2005, the BDS movement has built a global network with tens of 
 millions of supporters for Palestinian rights. BDS has moved large 
 corporations to end their complicity in Israel's crimes against the 
 Palestinian people. \n\nUMKR and MFSA will present two new campaigns that 
 we know will impact the global conversation about Palestine:\n\nPURGE 
 PALANTIR\nTech giant Palantir is building tools for mass surveillance to 
 help governments track and target individuals. It is a behemoth that is 
 vacuuming up our data to be used in everything from denial of health 
 insurance claims to unjust deportations and lethal drone strikes. 
 \n\nPalantir is used by militaries, police forces, banks, hospitals, and 
 many other businesses. Palantir openly supports Israel's genocide on Gaza 
 and assists their military operations. In the United States, the company 
 helps immigration authorities to target people for deportation and police 
 departments to surveil our communities.\n\nThis campaign aims to stop this 
 dangerous U.S. company from weaponizing our personal data and using it to 
 oppress and destroy.\n\nNO ROOM FOR GENOCIDE\nImagine taking a vacation in 
 a territory under military occupation! And in an illegal colony in that 
 territory! That is what Airbnb and Booking.com offer to their customers: 
 rentals in the illegal Israeli settlements in the West Bank.\n\nIt's time 
 to let these companies know this practice must stop. Everyone who travels 
 can take the pledge to avoid using Airbnb and Booking.com as much as 
 possible.\n\nImagine hosting someone who has been implicated in the Gaza 
 genocide in your home! Those of us who have a rental can take the 
 "Sanctuary of Peace" pledge, to not host war criminals and those who enable 
 genocide. \n\nJoin us on April 15th to learn from leading organizers of 
 both campaigns. \n\nWe will also hear from David Wildman, a United 
 Methodist Church leader with decades of in-depth experience in BDS 
 organizing, on the power of this transformational movement.\n
