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
