Activists from the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaign against Israel will be passing out literature outside of all the New Seasons stores in Portland. We are asking all of our supporters to come in during the day (preferably while we're handing out literature and coupons) and bring a coupon to the cashier or manager or fill in a comment card asking them to stop carrying Israeli products until Israel follows international law. At 4:30pm we'll be meeting up at the Red & Black Cafe to debrief all of our experiences and invite you all to come to that as well. Also, if you have yet to sign the petition asking New Seasons to stop carrying Israeli products, please do so here: <http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/dontbuyapartheid/>
