The Palestinian BDS movement calls on supporters worldwide to participate in Anti-Chevron Day on Wednesday\, May 21. Anti-Chevron Day has been organized by Amazon Watch since 2014. It i
s a global day of action protesting Chevron’s historical and ongoi
ng climate destruction and violations of human rights globally\,
especially in the Amazon basin in Latin America. In solidarity with the BD
S movement’s call to boycott Chevron for its complicity in Israel’s genoci
de and apartheid\, Amazon Watch and allies integrated the Palestinian Boyc
ott Chevron campaign into the Anti-Chevron Day tradition. \n \n<
p>Anti-Chevron Day falls one week before Chevron’s annual sharehol
der meeting (AGM). At the upcoming 2025 AGM\, shareholders will v
ote on a proposal calling on Chevron to audit its human rights abuses worl
dwide\, requiring input from civil society and human rights organizations.
This is a crucial time for our campaign to mobilize. We know that Chevron
is feeling the heat! Chevron entered the Israeli market in 2020\, and it
can exit just as easily.\n \n Be a part of Anti-Chevron Day o
n May 21 by peacefully disrupting business as usual. \n \n Action ideas include: \n \n- BOYCOTT & PICKE
T: organizing a gas station boycott picket
\n- DIVE
ST: starting a campaign calling on your city council\, university
\, union\, or other institution to divest from Chevron and/or exclude it f
rom contracts\;
\n- DROP SPONSORSHIPS: Organize an
org sign on letter\, email campaign\, and/or pressure campaign calling on
community events or universities to end existing Chevron sponsorships and

\n- EDUCATE: hosting an educational
event on Chevron as a shared demand of movements for environmental justice
and justice for Palestine.
