While we were protesting these democrat genocide enablers we discovered that the rally attendees were BUSSED IN from as far away as WASHINGTON DC, while the real Bronxites were outside the rally demanding they drop their endorsement of genocide Joe.
The reason AOC, Jamaal and Bernie are being protested is because they are zionist normalizers who *REGULARLY* smear Palestinian activists and anti genocide protestors as anti semitic, giving โprogressiveโ cover to zionist doxxing campaigns.

AOC has been smearing anti-imperialist activists for years.
Just last year, we protested against her hosting a military recruitment fair at a low-income Bronx public high school.
She then tried to gaslight and smear us as "outside agitators"
The callousness, dehumanization, and targeting of Jews on display at last nightโs protest outside the Nova Festival exhibit was atrocious antisemitism - plain and simple.
Antisemitism has no place in our city nor any broader movement that centers human dignity and liberation.
Jamaal, AOC + the Squad line up to endorse Hakeem Jeffries and Nancy Pelosi. And Joe Biden. All people who not only take AIPAC money but uphold the corrupt PAC system. If they truly cared about money in politics, maybe they should have withheld their endorsements.

A ceasefire only delays the genocide. We must address the root cause of the violence in Palestine: settler-colonialism. Sign the petition to the UN demanding the dissolution of the Zionist state of Israel, and the restoration of historical Palestine.
Fox News is big mad that weโre for the many, not the money.
We rallied 1200 people in the Bronx to take on dark money, get fired up, and send busloads of volunteers to canvass and phone bank.
Itโs called organizing. And itโs fun as hell.
Get into it:
This is called basic human decency, something these fake ass โprogressivesโ lack.
We also provided water to all attendees of our Queer Solidarity with Palestinian Resistance March.
During the AOC/Bowman Rally, two people suffered from heat exhaustion and the rally ended early because of it. I hope this shows organizations that you need to have a real plan for providing water to people like WOL at least did today to prepare for a heat wave.
They blocked us from marching on the street, so we marched on the sidewalk.
Then, they blocked us from marching on the sidewalk, so we took the streets and then they started making arrests.
At this point itโs clear they are the instigators and agitators of violence.

Our demands for progressives who claim to be in solidarity with our struggle:
1. Unendorse Genocide Joe
2. Re-affirm that anti-zionism is not antisemitism
3. Recognize the right to resist in accordance with international law
This point needs to be made since ๐ซ๐ท ๐ฌ๐งjust elected zionist politicians that ran on โrecognizing a Palestinian stateโ โ this is an attempt to quell and pascify the movement. This is NOT our demand.
Palestinians in Gaza have been under siege and blockade by the US/European empire for nearly 20 years, so when an occupied people break out of an israeli open air concentration camp, itโs heroic.
