Critics of divestment (including the WSJ editorial today) are completely missing the point

It's irrelevant whether a single investor divesting will "work" all on its own to achieve results. What's relevant is that when you have a choice to not fund and profit from apartheid and genocide, you make the right choice. It's not a math problem (it's not even a hard problem)

@pleaseclap That is the most cogent way to state that I've ever read. Thank you for that!

@WolfIsMe It seems really simple to me, and yet our leading newspapers can't wait to publish 1500 words in support of earning blood money

If our institutions can't make the right choice: they can't remain as they are
