Nike has billions for everything—except its own workers. If Nike can make its top shareholders billionaires, they can pay their workers. Nike’s wealth is built on invisibilised labour. It’s time Nike sees them and pays up.

If the Knights can afford to waste $1B and buy their way into “philanthropy,” they should push Nike's board to pay the workers who made them rich. Their wealth and philanthropy are built on invisibilised labour. It’s time the Knights see them and take accountability.

The Global Sumud Flotilla is being targeted by as of yet non-lethal psychological attacks with include drones and the hijacking of our VHF radios. They’re playing ABBA. Probably in line with their weird obsession with Greta. We will not be deterred.

❗️ALERT❗️Global Sumud Flotilla has been attacked 7 times in a short span! Boats hit with sound bombs, explosive flares, and sprayed with suspected chemicals. Radios jammed, calls for help blocked. Immediate international attention AND PROTECTION required! Hands off the Flotilla!
