Fridays @ 12:00 PM EDT - Zoom

Join us this Friday, where we’ll hear from a BDS organizer in Northampton, Massachusetts! On September 18, the Northampton City Council unanimously voted to divest from companies complicit in human rights violations in the war in Gaza and in the West Bank. Noam Perry, Strategic Research Coordinator for AFSC’s Action Center for Corporate Accountability, will also speak about the win and share more about AFSC’s BDS work.
