Across the world, human rights activists are gearing up for the 7th year in support of the Palestinian civil society's call for boycotts, divestment and sanctions (BDS) against Israel. In Melbourne, we have been involved in boycotting Zionist corporations Jericho and Max Brenner. Jericho is a cosmetics company that exploits minerals from the Dead Sea. While Jericho profits from this resource, the indigenous Palestinian people who live on the land surrounding the Dead Sea are regularly denied access.
