Queens Rally for Palestine
Let’s see how hard Queens goes for Palestine🔥People are asking if this is still happening because of the “ceasefire”. Yes, it’s still happening and that changes nothing. Gaza has been under siege and blockade for 15 years. No freedom of movement, no clean water, no work, constant bombardment from Israel, and destruction of infrastructure. Do not limit speaking out on Palestine to the times when massive bombs are dropping. Violence is always there as long as Israeli colonialism exists. Being trapped in the world’s largest open-air prison is violence. We must go even harder now! Celebrate our resistance while ensuring that the understanding of our struggle goes beyond war crimes and human rights violations. Palestine is an indigenous struggle against settler colonialism. As long as Israeli colonization exists, we must be there to fight it.
Also, it’s not a “conflict” between “Israel” and Hamas. It’s a struggle that the Palestinian people are collectively waging against oppression.
