People organized by
Bay Resistance,
Causa Justa,
San Francisco Jobs with Justice and many more groups took to Market Street on #PrimeDay to deliver a massive petition to Amazon demanding the company
stop selling its face recognition technology to immigration enforcers.
Amazon refused the petition.
Protesters shouted their solidarity with Amazon's warehouse workers who accuse the company of making a killing off their backs.
"We're humans, not robots," William Stolz, an Amazon warehouse worker in Shakopee, Minnesota, told CNN Business. "They're treating us like machines."
When a company becomes the world's retail colossus, people demand responsibility.
