SUMMARY:Stop Starving Gaza! Rally and Silent Procession
DESCRIPTION:Meet at Wegman’s main door\, near the big clock\nOrganized by the Public Action Committee of the MAPA Gaza Committee\nIsrael is starving 2.1 million people in Gaza.The small volume of aid that started to trickle in after an 11-week full blockade is a drop in the ocean. Israel is blocking thousands of trucks carrying food\, medicine\, and clean water from entering Gaza and continues to bomb bakeries\, farmland\, water facilities\, aid distribution centers\, and aid guards. Children and the elderly are dying. Israel’s goal is to prevent Palestinians from being able to return to their land. This is all being facilitated by our tax dollars.

SUMMARY:Stop ICE Abductions and Block the Bombs
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a critical conversation with Congresswoman Delia Ramirez\, who introduced a historic bill – H.R.3565\, the Block the Bombs Act\, to prevent the Trump administration from sending weapons to Israel. This is the first bill in U.S. history to proactively block the president from sending Israel the types of weapons that it has used repeatedly to commit apparent war crimes and crimes against humanity against Palestinians in Gaza through the genocidal violence Israel has been inflicting since October 2023. \nWe’ll also be joined by Mahmoud Khalil\, a Columbia University graduate student and outspoken advocate for Palestine\, who is currently suing the Trump administration after being detained for over 100 days without charges. During his illegal detention\, he was separated from his wife and missed the delivery of his newborn son. To this day\, Mahmoud continues to fight against the threat of deportation. \nAs the U.S. continues to support Israel’s devastating genocide in Gaza\, communities across the U.S. are also facing intensified state violence. This webinar explores the deep connections between attacks on migrants in the U.S.\, the weaponization of ICE against people speaking up against the genocide\, and U.S. participation in Israel’s occupation and genocide on Palestinians. \nFrom Gaza to the United States\, we’ll examine how U.S. policy drives displacement and repression — and how grassroots resistance is pushing back. \nOther speakers include: \n• Pedro Rios\, Director of the American Friends Service Committee’s U.S./Mexico Border Program \n• Brad Parker\, Associate Director of Policy at the Center for Constitutional Rights \nFacilitation will be provided by Amira Hassan of IMEU Policy Project and Nusaiba Mubarak from AFSC. \nIf you are registering from outside the US please use the zip code 19102 \n  \nhttps://www.mobilize.us/afsc/event/812779/
