事实：黑色星期五也是买不到任何东西的一天-Black Friday is Also Buy Nothing Day

Black Friday takes place the day after American Thanksgiving at the end of November. It is one of the busiest shopping days of the year, and many retailers⁸ offer special deals for consumers who are starting their holiday shopping. In recent years, many people have noticed that consumerism has taken over the holidays and taken a toll on our earth. Some have decided⁹ to boycott Black Friday by calling it Buy Nothing Day. This international day of protest against consumerism gains a little momentum each year. Some activists¹⁰ stand in shopping line-ups and offer to cut up credit cards for those who are about to waste money on things they don’t need. Others stay out of the malls and try to convince friends and family members to do the same.
