Take Action
Take action to stop the
massacre in Gaza:Our events page lists demonstrations and vigils in the Brighton area. The national Palestine Solidarity Campaign website lists events in London and around the country, plus details on writing to your MP and other actions you can take. The Palestinian Movement for Boycott Divestment and Sanctions has called upon international civil society to "intensify the international Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions ( BDS)
campaign against Israel to end its impunity and to hold it accountable
for its persistent violation of international law and Palestinian
rights." For information about the Boycott Divestment and Sanctions movement in the UK go to www.bigcampaign.org
1st January 2009--------------------------------------------------------------------------- BIG Campaign – Boycotting local supermarkets
Picketing in support of the Boycott Israeli Goods (BIG) Campaign
(supported by the National PSC and a range of other organisations) is
carried out on Saturday mornings in central Brighton & Hove. Joining the picket helps us to distribute leaflets and
discuss issues directly with the public. It is a stimulating and very
effective form of local action and all are welcome.
The BIG campaign also includes the lobbying of CATerpillar
goods, manufacturers of military bulldozers responsible for the illegal
destruction of thousands of Palestinian houses. Check out our list of local shops stocking CATerpillar clothing now.
If you are interested in getting involved email us at: info@brightonpalestinecampaign.org
The following are photos of an action organised by Brighton ISM as part
of the week of events leading up to the anniversary of the invasion of
Iraq.
Activists set up a mock apartheid wall and checkpoint outside Marks and
Spencers in Brighton to highlight the atrocities carried out at
checkpoints all over occupied Palestine and in support of the boycott
of Israeli goods. Activists later entered the store, piled up trolley
with Israeli products and questioned the people working in the store as
to why they were being sold. Also this action for the anniversary of Rachel Corrie's death.
