On Sunday, April 26th, we will gather for a peaceful protest in front of the Microsoft district in Chicago to shine a light on urgent human‑rights issues connected to the global technology industry. Our demonstration calls attention to the many ways exploitation, abuse, and injustice continue to shape the systems that power modern tech. 

We are raising awareness about the victims of human trafficking and the broader concerns surrounding the Epstein files, which have drawn public scrutiny toward several high‑profile figures in the tech and business world. Our focus is on justice for survivors, transparency, and accountability wherever abuse has been enabled or ignored. 

We also aim to highlight the ongoing exploitation tied to mineral extraction such as cobalt mining in parts of Africa and the harsh, unsafe working conditions faced by laborers around the world who support the supply chains of major technology companies. These issues reflect a pattern of prioritizing profit and power over human dignity and safety. 

Our message is simple: people must come before profit. Corporations that benefit from global labor must be held accountable for the human cost behind their products. We are demanding meaningful change, ethical responsibility, and a commitment to justice from every institution that shapes the future of technology. 

We will stand together peacefully to express our concern, our solidarity with victims, and our determination to see a world where human rights are protected not sacrificed for corporate gain.
