TL;DR:
Imagine shutting down Home Depot with seventeen cents. That’s what nearly 100 people did near Monrovia, CA last weekend, buying and returning tiny ice scrapers until the store basically froze. Nov 27–Dec 1 (Thanksgiving to Cyber Monday) we’re starving the ICE profiteers: Home Depot, Walmart, Target and more.
Last weekend, nearly a hundred people walked into a Home Depot in Monrovia, California with the same item in mind.
Ice scrapers.
Seventeen-cent ice scrapers.
One by one:
Self-checkout → receipt → customer service → return → back in line.
Some wore orange aprons and stickers that read “ICE out of Home Depot.”
There was no vandalism or violence. Just the kind of patience we have been perfecting since the invention of bureaucracy.
The action was organized by the National Day Laborer Organizing Network (NDLON) after the death of Carlos Roberto Montoya Valdez, a 52-year-old Guatemalan day laborer who was struck and killed on the 210 Freeway in August 2025 after fleeing an immigration sweep near this Home Depot. DHS later claimed he was not being actively pursued by its agents at that moment, but local witnesses and organizers say the enforcement operation triggered the panic that sent him running.
“Whether the corporation wants to admit it or not, Home Depot has become a place for this cruel, vicious immigration enforcement that’s taking place in our country,” said Pablo Alvarado, NDLON’s co-executive director.
You are the business model.
Without you walking through their doors, clicking “add to cart,” or swiping a card, they don’t have a “holiday strategy.” They have a spreadsheet with a panic attack. No profits, bonus checks, soaring stock price or spare cash to funnel to politicians who think your rights are optional.
And this five-day stretch? It’s not a cute shopping tradition.
This is the Super Bowl of their entire year.
Last year, the National Retail Federation expected about 186.9 million people to shop from Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday, the biggest turnout on record, and Adobe Analytics reported over $41 billion in online spending across those five days. Similar levels are expected again this year.
How Boycotts Work
Successful boycotts don’t just tap a company’s wallet. They go for reputation.
Brands run on trust.
And trust is what makes a mom pick one store over another, a grandpa renew a membership, a friend tells her sisters, “Don’t give them a dime.”
Recent research finds that consumer boycotts are no longer rare events, a 2025 review estimates that around 42% of multinational corporations and 54% of prominent brands have faced consumer boycott actions. Boycotts have become a normal, modern tool of public accountability.
So what separates boycotts that fizzle out from boycotts that force change?
Clear target
One company. One reason. One simple demand.
Confusion is the enemy of momentum. (This is part of why we succeeded with Disney/Jimmy Kimmel, we had one collective objective)Easy substitutes
If people can switch without suffering, participation elevates significantly.
The moment the alternative feels doable, the boycott becomes social.Sustained pressure
One-day blackouts are warning shots.
Long boycotts create risk markets can’t ignore.Public visibility
Headlines, viral posts, neighbors talking, this is what makes executives nervous.
Reputational damage is a stock-price language they understand fluently.
Want a modern proof-of-concept?
The Bud Light boycott showed how this works: once people had an easy substitute, sales fell sharply, about a 26% drop in U.S. off-premise sales early in the boycott and the brand lost its #1 market position, falling behind Modelo and Michelob Ultra.
Not because Bud Light stopped existing but because consumers stopped choosing it.
The Boycott List: Companies Profiting from ICE
The “We Ain’t Buying It” campaign targets the Thanksgiving-through–Cyber Monday window (Nov 27–Dec 1) for a five-day consumer blackout.
Sign the pledge! Boycott Amazon, Target, & Home Depot: https://weaintbuyingit.com/get-involved/
The official campaign names three headline targets.
Amazon, Target, and Home Depot
They’ve enabled the Trump-era agenda by rolling back DEI and/or cooperating with immigration enforcement.
The pipeline doesn’t stop at the cash register of these three stores.
A conservative read of public contracts and investor filings shows at least $1.5 billion a year flowing through deportation flights, private detention, and surveillance tech tied to ICE and DHS.s.
Here’s who’s profiting, how they profit, and what your dollars are powering with sources, contract context, and the easiest alternatives for each category.
PART 1:
THE ICE DEPORTATION MACHINE
Who’s cashing checks to fly deportations?
✈️ AVELO AIRLINES
What They Do:
Avelo is a low-cost consumer airline that agreed to operate ICE deportation flights under a charter program that ICE runs through the broker CSI Aviation, which manages ICE Air operations out of Mesa, Arizona.
The Money:
Federal records show that the ICE Air contract CSI uses for Mesa-based deportation flights is valued at over $151 million, and Avelo’s deportation work is tied to that pot through CSI’s subcontracting. (Avelo won’t disclose its exact portion.)
Reporting on ICE Air flights, across multiple carriers, has documented families and children flown in restraints.
Public Response:
Backlash has been swift: boycotts and airport protests in Houston (Avelo HQ) and major bases like New Haven, CT, plus petitions and city officials demanding they cut the deal.
✈️ GLOBALX AIRLINES (Global Crossing Airlines)
What They Do:
GlobalX is a charter airline that operates ICE removal flights under CSI Aviation subcontracts basically the workhorse of the deportation pipeline.
The Money:
Multi-year ICE Air agreements worth tens of millions of dollars, with GlobalX openly pitching deportation flights as a key growth area in its investor materials.
Recent flight-tracking investigations found GlobalX operating a majority of ICE removal flights in 2025 so far about 56% of removal flights in the latest July tally making it the workhorse of the deportation pipeline.
Investigations using flight records show GlobalX has run thousands of ICE Air flights in 2025, including transfers and deportations involving children and families in restraints.
So if you’re reading a headline about a family deported in the middle of the night, odds are high the plane had GlobalX on the tail.
Public Response:
Growing investor pressure, airport protest actions, and campaigns demanding passenger airlines refuse partnerships with deportation contractors.
✈️ CSI AVIATION
What They Do:
CSI Aviation is the logistics brain of ICE Air: the company that secures planes, schedules routes, and manages much of the removal-flight pipeline nationwide.
The Money:
CSI Aviation holds a multi-year ICE Air agreement worth up to $3.6 billion, and ICE has issued additional task orders under that umbrella, including a Mesa-based contract valued at over $151 million. As removals scale and new orders are issued, CSI’s total payout grows.
Important 2025 update:
CSI’s long-running role is now being contested in court. After a major voluntary-removals contract (“Project Homecoming”) went to another company, CSI filed a legal challenge over the loss of that work at the same time as ICE continues issuing new deportation flight orders under CSI’s existing ICE Air agreements. That tug-of-war is exactly why public pressure on ICE Air contractors is important.
Public Response:
Investor pressure campaigns and airport activism in major hubs like Los Angeles, Phoenix, and Mesa, aimed at forcing carriers and contractors out of the ICE business.
PART 2:
THE PRIVATE DETENTION PROFITEERS
Who gets richer every time ICE needs more beds?
🔒 GEO GROUP
What They Do:
GEO Group is the largest private operator of immigration detention in the U.S. When ICE wants more detention space, GEO is usually first in line with spare beds and a pen.
The Money:
2024 revenue: about $2.42 billion, with more than half coming from federal contracts including ICE.
New 15-year ICE contract (Delaney Hall, Newark): GEO estimates total value ~$1 billion, generating roughly $60 million per year.
GEO has moved to reopen and expand ICE facilities in 2025, adding capacity for thousands of additional detention beds.
GEO doesn’t just “provide detention.” They profit from it.
Their facilities have long, documented records of medical neglect, abuse allegations, solitary confinement misuse, and deaths in custody, and GEO is currently fighting major lawsuits right up to the Supreme Court over detainee labor practices.
More raids → more detainees → more GEO contracts. It’s a business model that requires suffering to grow.
Public Response:
National #DivestFromGEO and faith-based boycott campaigns, protests at GEO facilities, and pressure on pension funds to dump GEO holdings.
The “Also Them” Subsidiary:
BI Incorporated, a GEO-owned company, runs ICE’s Intensive Supervision Appearance Program (ISAP) the ankle-monitor and electronic-surveillance pipeline. In late 2025, BI received a new ICE contract worth up to ~$1 billion to expand this tracking program.
🔒 CORECIVIC
What They Do:
CoreCivic is the other giant of private immigrant detention. If GEO is the kingpin, CoreCivic is the co-author. They operate ICE detention centers and lobby hard for tougher enforcement.
The Money:
ICE revenue Q4 2024: $120.3 million, per CoreCivic’s own earnings report.
ICE revenue Q1 2025: $133.2 million again, straight from CoreCivic.
2025 reporting shows CoreCivic’s ICE-related contracts are surging as detention expands, with the company positioning itself for hundreds of millions more in new awards.
Between them, GEO and CoreCivic dominate private ICE detention, and both are actively expanding capacity for Trump-era mass deportation plans.
CoreCivic’s incentives are simple and ugly:
more enforcement → more detainees → more profit.
Public Response:
Faith and labor coalitions pushing boycotts, protests at CoreCivic sites (especially in Tennessee), and sustained divestment campaigns aimed at state pension funds and university endowments.
PART 3:
THE SURVEILLANCE & TECH ENABLERS
The quiet companies making ICE faster, cheaper, and harder to see.
🔍 PALANTIR TECHNOLOGIES
What They Do:
Palantir builds ICE’s core data and targeting systems, including a new platform called ImmigrationOS basically ICE’s all-in-one “find, track, remove” operating system.
The Money:
Palantir has secured tens of millions of dollars in ICE contracts for its new ImmigrationOS platform, on top of its existing ICE and DHS surveillance work.
Palantir’s broader federal contracting boom is now a major driver of company growth, with government revenue rising sharply quarter-over-quarter in 2025.
If deportations are a machine, Palantir is the control room.
ImmigrationOS is designed to integrate massive datasets and run near-real-time tracking and targeting making raids and removals faster and more automated.
You don’t see Palantir on the evening news. You see the results.
Public Response:
University walkouts at schools partnered with Palantir, organized divestment pushes in places like California and New Jersey, and former employees publicly condemning the ICE contracts.
📦 AMAZON (AWS, Whole Foods, Prime Video, Zappos, Audible, Ring, Kindle… all of it)
What They Do:
Amazon Web Services (AWS) provides cloud infrastructure and surveillance-adjacent tech that ICE relies on to store data, run enforcement systems, and scale deportation logistics.
The ICE Connection:
In April 2025, ICE leadership said the agency wants deportations to run like “Amazon Prime, but with human beings.” That line wasn’t a metaphor. It was a mission statement and Amazon’s cloud is part of what makes that “efficiency” possible.
The Money + Power Trail:
Amazon confirmed a $1 million donation to Trump’s 2025 inaugural fund.
Amazon reportedly paid about $40 million for a Melania Trump documentary for Prime Video.
The company wound down multiple DEI programs and removed diversity language from major corporate materials starting late 2024.
What You’re Funding:
Every Prime renewal. Every Whole Foods receipt. Every Audible credit. Every Ring camera. It’s fuel for a corporate ecosystem that keeps choosing ICE contracts and Trump alignment over human rights.
Public Response:
A headline target of “We Ain’t Buying It,” plus a major 2025 economic blackout focused on Amazon.
PART 4:
THE RETAILERS ENABLING ICE RAIDS
Where raids meet your receipts.
🔨 HOME DEPOT
What They Do:
Home Depot parking lots have become a recurring target for ICE sweeps focused on day laborers workers who’ve used these lots as informal hiring sites for decades.
The Money Trail:
Home Depot’s late co-founder Bernie Marcus was one of Trump’s loudest corporate backers. He donated millions to Trump-aligned PACs and publicly said he’d likely keep funding Trump even if convicted.
Marcus died in November 2024, but his wealth including large Home Depot holdings didn’t vanish. Your purchases still flow into the same shareholder ecosystem that bankrolled Trumpism for years.
Home Depot lots are basically the nation’s unofficial day-labor job board. ICE knows that.
In May 2025, reporting shows White House advisor Stephen Miller explicitly pushed ICE to target Home Depot parking lots as part of a broader enforcement escalation.
After a sweep near the Monrovia Home Depot in August 2025, Carlos Roberto Montoya Valdez, a 52-year-old Guatemalan day laborer, fled in fear and was struck and killed on the 210 Freeway. DHS later denied active pursuit at that moment, but witnesses and organizers say the operation triggered the panic that sent him running.
Home Depot’s Response:
The company says it does not coordinate with ICE and isn’t notified in advance of enforcement actions.
Why That’s Not Enough:
When a corporation’s property becomes a predictable raid site, neutrality becomes complicity. Home Depot could publicly condemn raids at its locations, set clear no-enforcement-on-property policies, and protect the workers who show up to feed its business. It hasn’t.
Public Response:
The 17-cent ice-scraper “buy-in” protest, ongoing boycott calls, and repeated demonstrations in California and beyond.
🛒 WALMART
The ICE Connection:
Advocates and workers have reported ICE operations and intimidation at or near Walmart stores and parking lots another predictable place where immigrant communities work, shop, and gather.
The DEI Betrayal:
Right after Trump’s return to office, Walmart became one of the first giants to roll back DEI. They:
Stopped using the term “DEI” in internal and external communications.
Ended supplier diversity goals and stopped factoring race/gender in supplier selection.
Shut down / didn’t renew the Center for Racial Equity.
Scaled back Pride and LGBTQ+ initiatives under right-wing pressure.
Pulled back from third-party DEI benchmarking programs.
The Money:
Walmart is the nation’s largest private employer (about 1.6 million U.S. workers), so when they cave, the ripple hits the whole economy.
Public Response:
Shareholders publicly scolded leadership, and Walmart was included in major 2025 consumer blackouts and boycott calls from labor and immigrant-rights coalitions.
🎯 TARGET
The Betrayal:
Within weeks of Trump’s second term, Target announced it was ending or scaling back key DEI pillars, including:
winding down racial equity programs,
dropping diversity hiring goals,
walking away from a multi-billion-dollar commitment to Black-owned business investment.
They branded it “Belonging at the Bullseye.”
Civil rights leaders called it a retreat.
The Impact:
Pastor Jamal Bryant’s “Target Fast” boycott began as a 40-day Lenten action and has now stretched 200+ days with measurable market fallout.
Reporting shows:
a ~12% stock drop after the rollback, wiping out billions in value,
sustained foot-traffic declines for multiple consecutive weeks,
and Target’s first major layoffs in years as pressure mounted.
The Verdict:
Even Target’s founders’ daughters publicly criticized the retreat as a betrayal of company values.
PART 5:
ADDITIONAL COMPANIES UNDER BOYCOTT
Because the deportation machine is fed by more than planes, prisons, and parking lots. It’s fed by cowardice.
These are the companies that either aligned financially with Trump’s second term, rolled back DEI under right-wing pressure, or both. Think of this as the “also-them” list the brands that decided your rights were negotiable.
🎧 SPOTIFY
The Betrayal:
Right now, Spotify is running recruitment ads for U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) on its ad-supported tiers. The audio spots invite listeners to apply for ICE jobs with signing bonuses up to $50,000 and tens of thousands in tuition reimbursement, as part of a Trump-era push to hire over 10,000 new deportation officers and expand a $30 billion immigration-enforcement budget.
Spotify has confirmed to reporters and to the New York City Comptroller that it is currently airing these ICE recruitment ads and has so far refused to remove them, saying they comply with its advertising policies. That decision has triggered a growing backlash: national groups like Indivisible are calling on users to cancel Spotify, labels like ANTI- and Epitaph Records have publicly demanded the ads be dropped, and artists and listeners are organizing boycotts across social media.
🧠 META (Facebook / Instagram / Threads)
The Betrayal:
Meta gave $1 million to Trump’s 2025 inauguration fund and, days before his return to office, terminated major DEI programs company-wide including the “diverse slate approach” for hiring and internal equity initiatives. Around the same time, Meta also ended third-party fact-checking in favor of a Community Notes model.
They cashed in on your attention and cashed out on responsibility.
🛒 WALMART
The Betrayal:
Advocates and workers have documented ICE operations and intimidation in and around Walmart stores and parking lots from high-profile arrests inside a Pico Rivera Walmart and sweeps at New Mexico shopping centers to raids that started in a Wisconsin Walmart lot where dairy workers gather before heading to their jobs.
At the same time, in 2024–2025 Walmart began rolling back core DEI commitments: phasing out its Center for Racial Equity, stopping the use of “DEI” language, ending consideration of race and gender in supplier selection, scaling back racial-equity training, pulling some Pride/LGBTQ merchandise, and stepping away from external equality benchmarks like the Human Rights Campaign’s Corporate Equality Index all under pressure from anti-DEI activists.
🍔 McDONALD’S
The Betrayal:
McDonald’s retired its goal to reach 35% underrepresented U.S. leaders by the end of 2025, and rolled back central DEI pillars (including supplier diversity commitments), citing a “shifting legal landscape.”
They had a goal. They hit turbulence. They ditched it.
🚗 FORD
The Betrayal:
Ford rolled back multiple DEI policies in 2024 after being targeted by anti-DEI pressure campaigns, scaling down programs and public commitments.
🌾 TRACTOR SUPPLY COMPANY
The Betrayal:
In June 2024, Tractor Supply was one of the first big retailers to scrap DEI roles and goals and stop sponsoring Pride and civic engagement efforts after a coordinated anti-DEI campaign.
🚜 JOHN DEERE
The Betrayal:
In July 2024, John Deere overhauled DEI, ending sponsorship of many cultural awareness events and auditing training to remove what it called “social messages.”
🏍️ HARLEY-DAVIDSON
The Betrayal:
Harley-Davidson ended its DEI function in 2024, dropping hiring/supplier diversity expectations after online pressure campaigns.
🚙 TOYOTA
The Betrayal:
Toyota scaled back DEI programs in 2024 following sustained anti-DEI targeting, joining the broader corporate retreat.
🍺 MOLSON COORS
The Betrayal:
Molson Coors rolled back DEI initiatives in September 2024, including stepping away from equality benchmarks and internal DEI training under conservative pressure.
✈️ BOEING
The Betrayal:
Boeing dismantled its global DEI department in October 2024, folding it into HR and removing standalone DEI leadership.
🔎 GOOGLE / ALPHABET
The Betrayal:
In February 2025, Google ended diversity-based hiring and representation goals and scrubbed DEI commitments from its annual report, explicitly citing Trump-era contractor rules and legal shifts.
They said, “DEI is inconvenient.”
Did any of these companies surprise you? Which ICE-profiting company are you MOST committed to boycotting?
The deportation airlines? The private detention profiteers? The surveillance tech? The retailers? What other companies should be on this list?
The “Buycott”: Where Your Dollars CAN Go
A boycott is only half of it.
The other half is putting your money where your values live.
Corporations notice absence but they follow the money.
So when a company does the right thing, we reward it loudly and on purpose.
Like Costco.
When conservative activists tried to pressure Costco into backing away from DEI, their board basically said: not today, Satan. Then shareholders backed them up more than 98% voted against the anti-DEI proposal, effectively reaffirming Costco’s stance.
And guess what happened next?
Costco’s sales kept climbing through FY2025 (up about 8% year-over-year).
Membership loyalty stayed rock-solid: ~90% renewal worldwide (over 92% in the U.S./Canada).
That’s what happens when a company chooses values.
People become loyal customers in support.
Companies Standing Firm (or Not Rolling Back)
These brands have either publicly reaffirmed DEI in 2024–2025 or have not announced major retreats, even while peers folded:
COSTCO Shareholders rejected anti-DEI pressure 98% to 2%; loyalty + sales remain strong.
APPLE Shareholders also rejected an anti-DEI proposal by ~97%, keeping DEI in place.
JPMORGAN CHASE Leadership restated DEI commitments in 2025; Jamie Dimon explicitly defended continued outreach and inclusion efforts.
PINTEREST Among major firms cited in 2025 coverage as continuing DEI commitments amid backlash.
DELTA AIR LINES Executives reiterated DEI won’t be abandoned under pressure in 2025.
Simple Swaps for the Week
Instead of Spotify: Apple Music, Tidal, or buy direct on Bandcamp
Instead of Amazon Prime Video: library card + Kanopy / Hoopla (free streaming)
Instead of Whole Foods: local co-ops, farmer’s markets
Instead of Target/Walmart: Costco, local groceries, thrift stores
The goal is direction.
Every time you choose a values-aligned alternative, you’re building the economy you want to live in.
Even Better: Shop Local and Small
Your local hardware store. Your neighborhood grocery. The Black-owned business down the street. The farmer’s market where someone calls you “hon” and means it.
When you spend at a locally owned business, your money doesn’t disappear into a corporate vortex in Arkansas or Seattle. It keeps bouncing around your town paying a neighbor’s wages, buying from another local supplier, sponsoring the school raffle, keeping Main Street alive.
Economic studies call this the local multiplier effect. On average, dollars spent at independent local businesses recirculate about 2–4 times more in the community than dollars spent at big chains. Put another way: roughly three times as much of your purchase stays local compared to a big-box store.
Big-box dollars? They leave fast.
Local dollars? They settle in and do chores.
Find alternatives near you:
Independent hardware stores
Black-owned business directories
Local farmer’s markets
Independent bookstores
Latino-owned businesses
AAPI-owned businesses
If you’re not sure where to start, the simplest rule is:
look for the places where the owner actually lives in your ZIP code.
Your Action Plan: What To Do Right Now
Before Thanksgiving
Cancel Amazon Prime.
Do it right now. Select “other” for the reason and type: “Boycotting ICE profiteering.”
(Yes, they read those and they keep track of them)Cancel Spotify Premium.
Switch to Apple Music, Tidal, or buy direct on Bandcamp (artists keep more of your money there anyway).Delete the convenience traps.
If you have them, delete: Whole Foods, Zappos, Audible, Prime Video apps.
Out of sight = out of reflex, plus they don’t get your data!Check your portfolio.
Search for: GEO Group, CoreCivic, Palantir.
If you own them, divest. Your retirement shouldn’t depend on somebody else’s detention.Make a shopping list with alternatives.
Where are you getting groceries? Gifts? Hardware?
Decide now so the weekend doesn’t “oops” you into a cart.Tell your people.
Send this post to three friends or your family group chat before Thanksgiving dinner.Do not underestimate the power of one aunt with receipts.
Thursday through Monday (Nov 27–Dec 1):
No Target. No Amazon. No Home Depot.
Not one click. Not one “just this once.”
If you need something, buy it literally anywhere else.Also avoid:
Spotify, Walmart, and every company on this list as much as you can.Go local.
Small Business Saturday (Nov 30) is our day.
Make it a mini field trip: coffee + local shop + maybe a little smug satisfaction.Document and share.
Post where you are shopping. Tell people why.
Use #WeAintBuyingIt
Get Creative:
Host a peaceful “buy-in” protest
Print and hand out flyers listing ICE-profiting companies, busy intersections, community boards, church lobbies, wherever people actually read things.
Pressure your pension fund or employer plan to divest from GEO Group and CoreCivic. (One email from one person becomes ten, and then it becomes policy.)
Join airport protests against Avelo, GlobalX, and CSI Aviation if they’re happening near you.
Throw a “buy local gift-wrap night.”
Snacks, holiday music, wrapping paper, gifts from small businesses.
Make resistance feel like community again.
Quick safety + legality reminder:
This campaign is about peaceful, lawful economic pressure. No trespassing, no harassment, no blocking emergency access, no messing with workers. Keep it nonviolent, keep it smart, keep it effective.
The Cash Register Hears You
Pastor Jamal Bryant said something that deserves to be printed on every shopping cart handle in America:
“They hear me. The cash register hears me. Power concedes nothing without a demand.”
These corporations made a choice.
They chose to profit from human suffering.
They chose to enable mass deportation.
They chose to abandon equity commitments when it got politically inconvenient.
They chose ICE contracts over human dignity.
So now you get to make a choice.
Black Americans hold around $2 trillion in annual buying power in the U.S. economy.
Women drive roughly 70–80% of consumer purchasing decisions.
Combined? We’re not asking for a seat at the table.
We ARE the table.
So this weekend, when your finger hovers over “add to cart,” or your keys jingle in your hand headed toward Home Depot remember those protesters in Monrovia.
Remember what they proved with seventeen cents and stubborn, orderly determination:
We are the economy. Without us, nothing moves.
More than $1.5 billion a year flows to ICE contractors. Every purchase at these companies helps keep the deportation machine humming.
Let’s make them hear us.
What creative boycott action are you planning? Have you already canceled Prime or Spotify?
Share your strategy below someone else needs to hear it. Let’s learn from each other.
This Isn’t Just About Five Days
Yes, the “We Ain’t Buying It” campaign is aimed at Thanksgiving through Cyber Monday.
These companies don’t profit from ICE seasonally.
They profit from ICE daily.
GEO Group and CoreCivic fill detention beds for profit every day.
Palantir runs the surveillance backbone that makes raids and removals possible every day.
Avelo, GlobalX, and CSI Aviation fly deportation missions every day.
Home Depot lots keep being treated like hunting grounds for day labor sweeps every day.
A five-day boycott sends a message.
A sustained boycott changes the weather.
So if this list hits your gut the way it should, consider making it permanent.
Not just for Black Friday.
For every Friday.
For every day these corporations choose profit over human dignity.
Save this list.
Pull it up when you’re about to buy something and ask yourself:
Is this where I want my vote to go?
Because every dollar is a vote.
Every purchase is a choice.
Choose wisely.

Thank you for compiling this detailed list. Being older people, we do not do a lot of shopping. We have avoided Walmart for years, but until recently I thought Whole Foods was good...Will be doing some adjusting here...Thanks again and wishing you a restful and enjoyable holiday...
😊 Well played patriots!
