There is a lot of misinformation regarding the boycott for Palestine right now and I wanted to do my best to educate people who were unaware.

There is the BDS movement and Palestinians have said that this is the boycott list we should be ultimately focusing on. "The BDS movement uses the historically successful method of targeted boycotts inspired by the South African anti-apartheid movement, the US Civil Rights movement, the Indian anti-colonial struggle, among others worldwide."

Starbucks is not apart of their boycott campaign and although yes, there is other boycott lists that people have supported, we need to listen as allies for Palestine and follow this movement instead. The reason most people are boycotting Starbucks was for the fact they sued their union and have been illegally shutting down these unions by not allowing employees to protest or to show support for Palestine in their stores. The issue is (supposedly) not because Starbucks funds Israel, there has been no apparent sources for this. Palestinians have not referred Starbucks as a zionist company, however, due to their mistreatment of their staff and not allowing them to be Pro-Palestine, it is exactly why their company has been boycotted. Although, boycotting Starbucks is not benefitting Palestinians, but it will benefit the Starbucks' Union & employees. If the BDS movement adds Starbucks to one of the 4 lists, then please proceed with following their instructions.

The reason why its not helpful for boycotting companies that aren't on the list is because it defeats the purpose of a targeted boycott, it is disorganized. The more people focus on a smaller number of brands to boycott, the larger the impact will be.

As for McDonald's, it is considered a Organic Boycott Target: "The BDS movement did not initiate these grassroots boycott campaigns but is in support of them due to these brands openly supporting Israel’s genocide against Palestinians".

On this website it will also state that some companies need pressure, not boycotting. Google is one of the pressure and non boycott targets. For example, as a university student, it is necessary for me to use Google because my student account system automatically requires us to use Gmail. You are allowed to use these non boycott targets, but should not endorse them. "We have not, on strategic grounds, called for a boycott of these brands and services, instead we strategically call on supporters and institutions to mount other forms of pressure on them until they end their complicity in Israeli apartheid."

The goal for pressuring and boycotting is for companies to stop being complicit in the genocide of Palestine. If a company retracts it's statement and goes from Pro-Israel to Pro-Palestine, this is a good thing and that is the result that Palestinians want. We can still actively avoid and boycott these companies for moral reasons, but for wanting companies to be "canceled" or end it's business, is not what Palestinians are asking us to do. These larger businesses have the necessary funds & pull to help support Palestine and we have to keep pressuring them to be on their side.

It is also important to not center boycotting around celebrities, influencers, and athletes or treat it as if it's a trend. It is not for you to make you feel better about yourself. Or to attack other people as well. Being outraged in a person's comment sections for having a coffee cup that isn't even from Starbucks is not serving Palestinians justice. Only boycott and pressure these companies with the intention of supporting Palestinian lives and for their right to receive their land back.

Also please be aware that there is other countries experiencing genocide such as Congo, Sudan, and more. It is best not to apply the same methods from Palestine movements to these countries, but instead find sources that are factual and boycott lists that will help these countries' specific needs.

This is the boycott list. I keep seeing these long list floating around on other social medias but I want to make sure that an accurate list was here as well. Also I believe that we are Boycotting Starbucks because the union put out a statement on standing with Palestine and Starbucks decided to sue them. The BDS Movement also has a few more actions that you can take. ⤵️

I’ve seen a lot of posts online about the targeted “big three” boycott of Disney, Starbucks, and McDonald’s in order to impact Israel and support Palestine.

While these (and other) companies ARE included in BDS’ list of organic boycotts or pressure (non-boycott) targets, the list of companies to totally boycott are actually:

- Siemens

- PUMA

- Carrefour

- AXA

- Hewlett Packard Inc (HP Inc)

- SodaStream

- Ahava

- RE/MAX

- any Israeli produce

Keep this in mind as you protest, boycott, lobby, etc!

A reminder: we’re still boycotting in April 🇵🇸

From the river to the sea Palestine will be free

this is an amazing extensive list of cosmetics (etc) brands to boycott in your support of palestine. the main parent companies that should be boycotted are L'oréal Paris, Estée Lauder, and Procter & Gamble.

as a makeup artist, it's important to be aware of what's in your kit and what brands you're advertising. i will be trying to edit the products i use on clients appropriately.

Just wanted to remind you guys that there is this app called "No Thanks" that you can use to scan the barcode or look up the brand of a product to check if they are on the BDS boycott list!
