About Us

Who Are We:

We are “Consumers Against Genocide” a group of concerned consumers dedicated to ensuring that our consumer spending does not support businesses that violate human rights.

In response to the International Court of Justice (ICJ) advisory ruling on July 19, 2024, stating the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian Territories is unlawful and violates international law. We are taking on the individual responsibility that governments have not, by calling on businesses that we support with our spending to sever ties with suppliers who contribute to the suffering and killing of innocent people.

We are committed to advocating for ethical business practices and holding businesses accountable for their role in perpetuating violation of human rights. We believe that consumers hold the power to demand change..

Our Mission:

Our mission is to urge companies to prioritize people over profit by changing their sourcing practices and ceasing to support suppliers involved in illegal activities. We are committed to providing information, raising awareness, and offering calls to action that encourage individuals to exercise their purchasing power.

By refusing to be complicit, we aim to foster a future where businesses value justice, ethics, and human dignity and rights above profits.

Why Costco?

Our campaign roadmap is structured around five sequential milestones, each with a specific call to action. These phases will launch approximately 2-3 weeks apart to maintain momentum. The campaign will begin with a mass email campaign directed at Costco leadership, formally presenting our demands. Subsequent phases will escalate the pressure through creative, public-facing actions designed to hold Costco accountable to its own ethical code and ultimately transform it into a more principled organization.

Costco’s Stated Values

Costco claims to champion:

  • Global Accountability: Responding to legal rulings.
  • Ethical Sourcing (UN Sustainable Development Goals, human rights).
  • Integrity: “Do the right thing.”

Costco’s Reality

Yet, Costco:

  • Undermines trust by valuing profit over human dignity.
  • Ignores the ICJ ruling and continues sourcing from Israel.
  • Risk complicity in apartheid, annexation, and racial segregation.

Our Demand

We call on Costco to:

  • Remove all products linked to violations from shelves.
  • Review its supply chain for ties to Israeli suppliers.
  • Cancel contracts with these suppliers immediately.
