Winning Divestment For Palestine at the State Level: The State of State Divestment – a webinar

May 2 @ 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Join a webinar on Saturday, May 2 for a discussion about state-level divestment campaigns in the United States. This session is valuable for activists who are already engaged in BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanction) campaigns, as well as for those just getting started.

Activists from the state of Washington will share insights from their recent successful effort to push the state Treasurer to divest from Caterpillar, due to the company’s longstanding involvement in Israel’s grave human rights violations against Palestinians.

Also hear from organizers in California who are building a broad, union-centered coalition to target the state’s pension funds and advance divestment efforts, and from activists in Minnesota, who successfully pressured the state to sell off most of its Israel Bonds.

Event cosponsors include the BDS Movement, American Friends Service Committee (AFSC), Jewish Voice for Peace, CalSTRS Divest, and Minnesota Anti War Action Network.

Sign up here to get the Zoom link for the webinar.
