On boycotts, I’ve already started avoiding their products, but when I noticed that people around me, and people in general, don’t take it seriously, I began questioning whether it actually has any real impact. Is the problem that boycotts don’t work, or that people simply can’t resist their habits and desires? I honestly can’t create change alone, so what am I supposed to do with that?
So I’m asking: where does an ordinary person start? What common mistakes should I avoid? What genuinely helps, instead of hollow gestures of solidarity?
Continue to advocate for change and educate those willing to learn. The view toward Israel has changed dramatically in the last three years. Lots of people are noticing their terrible behavior. I wouldn’t have ever bet on this shift before, but it’s happening.
