Organized Boycotts Challenge ICE Corporate Support
An opinion piece argues that viral attention to corporate ties with ICE demands organized collective action, not individualized consumer boycotts. Citing a viral Instagram post with over four million views and examples like Minneapolis's union-backed strike, Resist and Unsubscribe, and iceout.tech, the author recommends coordinated demands, visible membership campaigns, and labor leverage to make boycotts effective. The piece notes class barriers and research showing unequal ability to 'buy ethically'.
