The Peoples Power Assembly gathered in front of Amazon Warehouses at Holabird and Broening Highway. Called as a noise demonstration, activists beat on drums and played the bugle to garner attention from workers during shift change at the two warehouses.
The action was called to support Chris Smalls, an Amazon labor leader who participated in the Gaza Freedom Flotilla aboard the Handala, which set sail to deliver food to starving Palestinians. Smalls was detained and arrested by the IOF (Israeli Occupation Forces), along with 21 other activists, but was singled out as the only Black member of the Flotilla and choked, kicked and assaulted while in Israeli custody.
The group also demanded that Amazon shut down “Project Nimbus” and all other contracts and investments with the apartheid government of Israel. The Israeli military uses Amazon’s “Project Nimbus” to automate the software it uses to operate their weapons systems that target and kill Palestinians. “Instead of investing in genocide, pay workers a $30 minimum wage, full time benefits and make safety a priority,” organizers proclaimed.
