Protest ethnic cleansing, occupation at nationwide Nakba Day rallies

nakba day protests

May 15 marks the 78th anniversary of the Nakba — the date which marks the original ethnic cleansing and occupation of Palestine in 1948.

Now, we are living through a modern day Nakba, as Israel’s genocide in Gaza continues despite the so-called ceasefire. 

Join protests across the country to mark Nakba Day, and demand Labor cut ties with Israel and stop arming its genocide.
