NYC - No Appetite for Apartheid!

No Appetite for Apartheid is a national boycott campaign launched by the Palestine Solidarity Working Group and powered by a growing number of local grassroots coalitions. Inspired by long-standing Palestinian boycott tactics and the BDS call, we are canvassing local stores in our communities and asking them to pledge to become Apartheid Free Stores by dropping food products and companies that are complicit in the colonization of Palestine from their shelves.

We host monthly canvasses in Crown Heights, Brooklyn to engage with local businesses and build Apartheid Free Zones in New York City. Whether you're new to organizing or experienced in community outreach, we welcome you to join us!

Why a Food Boycott?

• Divest from food grown on stolen land: the U.S. is the biggest importer of Israeli food products ($396 million in 2019). One of the many ways the U.S. subsidizes the economy of the occupation.
• Starve the apartheid regime: Israel's food industry is a beneficiary of the political economy of settler colonialism: from products grown and manufactured on stolen Palestinian land; to exploiting low-paid Palestinian workers; to profits and taxes funding Israeli Occupation Forces.
• Every day choices of US consumers contributed to the downfall of apartheid in South Africa. Since 2005, Palestinians have called on the global community to engage in consumer boycotts.
