This
Thanksgiving
through Cyber
Monday, pledge not
to shop from the
corporations
enabling Trump’s
fascist agenda.
Hey Wendy,
Donald Trump is
wildly grasping
for power that
doesn’t belong to
him -- and greedy
corporations seem
more than happy to
give it up.
They’re donating
millions to curry
Trump's favor,
standing aside as
his regime attacks
workers and
shoppers, and
meekly caving to
even the weakest,
most dubious
threats.
Our cowardly
corporate leaders
need a reminder
that real power
belongs to the
people. And next
week, during the
biggest shopping
weekend of the
year, we’re
sending them a
message.
From Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday,
we’re asking you
not to shop from
three major
corporations
enabling Trump’s
fascist agenda.
Our Targets
 |
HOME DEPOT enables ICE terrorism
by allowing
Trump’s
jackboots to
violently
detain and
kidnap workers
on its
properties.
|
 |
TARGET caved to MAGA backlash by
pulling Pride
merch off the
shelves, and
canceled DEI
programs that
support Black
workers and
businesses.
|
 |
AMAZON provides technology to
power ICE
deportations
while Jeff
Bezos spends a
fortune
kissing up to
Trump --
funding both
his MAGA
agenda and
vanity
projects like
his ballroom.
|
These aren’t the
only companies
complicit in
Trump's attacks on
democracy -- far
from it! -- but
economic pressure
is most effective
when it’s
concentrated and
easy to join in
on. We’re focusing
our fire on three
ubiquitous brands
that are among the
biggest
corporations
trying to profit
by enabling Trump.
By withholding
our support during
one of the most
important weekends
of their year,
we’ll make it
clear that there’s
a price to pay for
enabling
authoritarianism.
How to take action
To send a strong
message, we need
not just you, but
your family,
friends, and
community, to
commit to
supporting mutual
aid or small
businesses instead
of Home Depot,
Target, and Amazon
next weekend.
Here are three
steps to take
right now:
- Learn more: Make a plan to
join the
economic
blackout from
November 27 –
December 1.
Understand what
we’re asking,
why we’re doing
this, and how to
spend your
dollars where
they’ll do good.
- Let us know you’re
with us: Pledge to pause
shopping at
Home Depot,
Target, and
Amazon.
Don’t give any
money to the
companies
undermining
democracy.
Support local
businesses or
mutual aid
efforts instead.
- Spread
the word: Use our graphics
and
customizable
social posts
to get others
involved.
Try to triple
your impact by
getting three
other people to
join the
blackout.
This holiday
season, let’s make
our dollars count.
Join us to tell
Home Depot,
Target, Amazon,
and the whole
corporate world: When
you support
Trump, we don’t
support you.
In solidarity,
Indivisible Team
