TAKE ACTION.
. .Dear PAOV,
This will be quick--but it’s urgent and really important.
As part of the #Stolenhomes coalition, 150,000 people have told Airbnb to end their policies of displacement and discrimination. From gentrification in cities in the US to profiting off vacation rentals in the Occupied West Bank, they are making money off of #stolenhomes.
But we’ve heard nothing in response. It is clear Airbnb cares more about their bottom line than the voices of the communities they are making money from, so we are gonna start talking where they listen.
We are going to pressure the largest institution invested in Airbnb--Fidelity Investments--to use their sway to force Airbnb to end their profit off of #stolenhomes.
Call their fund manager today to say no more #stolenhomes.
Today in 14 different cities across the globe, activists are showing up at Fidelity offices to speak out against Airbnb’s rentals in Israeli Settlements. And we’re going to amplify those voices by calling their Portfolio Manager.
With Israel’s brutal military occupation now entering its 50th year, it is way past time for companies to end their complicity in this oppression. Together we can raise our collective voices enough to force Fidelity and Airbnb to stop profiting from Israel's denial of Palestinians’ basic human rights.
Join us today,
Stefanie
