Mahogany Is Murder

On Saturday 13th of May, Five Cambridge EF! activists removed 5 items suspected to be manufactured from Brazilian Mahogany from Robert Sayle Stores in Cambridge. The items were taken to Parkside Police station where the activists requested that the items, were investigated to establish Robert Sayle's involvement in the trade of Mahogany stolen from the indigenous peoples of the Brazilian Amazon. CRISP-O appeal yet again to the John Lewis chain to cease all involvement in the mahogany trade, in order to bring an end to the destruction of the rainforest and the murder of Indigenous Peoples for their property.
