7/26 Demand No Tech For Apartheid at NYC Amazon Web Services Summit (in person NYC)

Wednesday, July 26, 12:30 PM EDT

On July 26th, Amazon Web Services will hold its annual summit in New York City, bringing thousands of “cloud enthusiasts” to the Javits Center for a day of “learning, networking, and collaboration.”

But Amazon’s technology isn’t being used to bring people together—it’s forcing them apart and enabling and entrenching apartheid, state violence, occupation, and land grabs through its billion dollar contract with the Israeli government and military.

For over two years, Amazon and Google workers have been organizing to end the Project Nimbus contract, which helps the Israeli government surveil Palestinians, expand illegal settlements, and inflict violence on Palestinians under siege and occupation.

The message is clear: We refuse to allow business as usual as long as Amazon continues to profit off of the violence and repression that Palestinians face daily. Tech workers do not want to build technology used to enable Israel's oppression of Palestinians.

Join workers and community in New York City to say #NoTechForApartheid and show Amazon that we won't stay silent while they power violence against Palestinians.
