“For six years, workers and movements around the world have come together to hold Amazon accountable. On Black Friday, November 27, 2026, we will once again stand together for fair wages, safe working conditions, union rights, fair taxation, climate justice and freedom from corporate surveillance and war. Join in. Get active. Hold Amazon accountable…” this year’s English.Calling the Make Amazon Pay campaign
with an action card for the global day of action that unions, civil society organizations and environmental associations are planning on “Black Friday”, November 27th, with strikes and protests in more than 20 countries:
- At Make Amazon Pay, the call also says (machine translated): “Amazon just announced its most profitable quarter ever.In just three months, Amazon posted operating profits of $28.1 billion - a 61% increase year-over-year.Amazon Web Services (AWS) alone generated a profit of $17.8 billion with a staggering profit margin of almost 39%.Now Amazon plans to spend $220 billion this year, much of it on massive data centers and AI infrastructure.
The costs are rising. The CO₂Amazon's emissions rose 16% last year. Since October 2025, the company has cut around 30,000 jobs at its headquarters. Yet it continues to resist demands to pay its fair share of taxes, even though its expansion depends on electricity, water and public infrastructure.
But people are fighting back.
Last month, Amazon agreed to abandon plans for four new data centers after opposition from residents and local authorities in Virginia.
This Black Friday we are taking this fight worldwide.
From November 27th to November 30th, Amazon workers will go on strike and activists will protest worldwide to demand Amazon pay.We demand fair wages, safe working conditions, union rights, fair taxes, climate action and enforceable public interest regulations for Amazon's expanding data center empire. Amazon has billions to invest in its future. But we have the power to shape our own future.”
