What a Difference a Day Makes On Boycotts, Word to Dinah Washington

"What did we accomplish with the 24-hour boycott? Disruption. And that is no trifle. Admittedly, I haven't looked at any analysis. But crunching the numbers isn't the most crucial point. Not by far. What we disrupted was our default."

I don’t have an opinion on this action but I do know that terminally online people who critique a given action w/o proposing some kind of alternative of where people should focus their energy do more harm than good. It’s cynical and dispiriting and it encourages people new to activism to disengage.
