Day of Action! Boycott SodaStream this Holiday Season at Target and Beyond!
Dear supporters,
 CLICK ABOVE TO WATCH the 2013 Boycott SodaStream Day of Action promo video! |
It's that time again! As occupation profiteer SodaStream continues to exploit Palestinian land, labor, and resources while it amps up holiday promotional efforts in the U.S. and beyond, we cannot remain silent. Join groups nationwide and beyond in planning a 2013 Boycott SodaStream Day of Action during holiday shopping!
More than 20 cities around the country are targeting SodaStream locally, and many have already decided to take part in the Day of Action. Will you join them?
Member group Jewish Voice for Peace - DC Metro created this awesome video to invite all to take part!
WHEN?
Pick whatever day works best for you! Friday, November 29 marks theInternational Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People as well asBlack Friday, the biggest shopping day of the year. Cyber Monday isDecember 2 (great for online actions) and Tuesday, December 10 isHuman Rights Day.
With so many great options to choose from, your group can pick the most comfortable and context-appropriate time to take action ANY day(s) between Nov 29 and Dec 10 -- as holiday shopping goes into full swing. Your activities and reports can unfold, one after another, during this exciting period.

WHERE?
The primary corporate focus of the Days of Action will be Target,which touts an ethical policy saying "We hold ourselves to the highest ethical standards, and we expect our partners to do the same." For more than a year, member groups from coast to coast and in between have urged Target to de-shelve and Friends of Sabeel - North America began a "SodaStream 14" Campaign this fall to send letters to the CEOs of Target and other corporations. Learn more and send your own letters here.
Does your group prefer to focus your Boycott SodaStream action onanother corporate target? That's fine too!
