Hi comrades,
From Johannesburg and Nairobi, two calls last month:
1) general <https://saftu.org.za/archives/8766> BDS-USA but also a
BDS-Musk (X.com, Starlink and Tesla) from the 2nd trade union
federation: https://saftu.org.za/archives/8766
2) climate

BDS-USA from Africa's leading activist network:

It's actually a long tradition

For many years, I participated in the annual Buy Nothing Day. For
those who don’t know, Buy Nothing Day is the day after
Thanksgiving, otherwise known as Black Friday I’m pretty sure our
efforts had no effect, but it was fun to tell people that we were
doing it.
I know people who are participating in the Buy Nothing on February
28 Day and it seems like the effect is the same: telling people
that you’re doing it the goal.
I’m sure I won’t buy anything on that day, but since I’m not
boasting about it, does it really matter?
Kristin
