Nike, Zara, and other big brands are profiting from forced labor by
Uyghurs in China.

Pressure now can stop them -- will you help fund a massive ad campaign to
expose their complicity and move them to act?

John,

Nike, Zara, and other massive brands are profiting from the rape and
torture of the Uyghur people -- but we have the power to stop them!

The government of China is holding Uyghurs in concentration camps, forcing
them to work under unimaginable conditions -- and these big brands are
buying up the products, helping the government not only cover up their
crimes...but profit from them.

H&M has already announced it's standing up to the government and cutting
all business with the camps -- a global ad blitz right now could force
other big brands to stand with them.

Every USD$1 donated will get our ad campaign in front of another 100
people -- can you chip in to help end the Uyghur genocide?

We know that pressure on brands is working because the government of China
has begun an all-out PR campaign against H&M for taking such a public
stance opposing the atrocities being committed against the Uyghurs.

Building the momentum now is crucial -- the more brands we can move to
stop sourcing products from forced Uyghur labor, the closer we can get to
building the global coalition of consumers, companies, and governments
necessary to end the Uyghur genocide.

Our global community has forced major clothing brands to change course
before. When tens of thousands of SumOfUs members successfully pressured
Joe Fresh clothing to ensure the safety of its Bangladeshi workers, H&M,
Zara and Benetton followed suit.

A targeted global ad blitz will turn up the heat on these brands by
exposing their ties to the atrocities in Xinjiang and building consumer
pressure for them to act. We just need your support today to make it a
reality.

Our community has proven time after time that we can use the combination
of brands’ public image and consumer power to create real change -- now
let’s do it again.

   

Thanks for all that you do,
Vicky and the SumOfUs team
