Stop arming and funding Israeli war crimes
We hear you Palestine. All our energies are focused on ending the apartheid and genocide. The US must stop arming and funding Israeli war crimes.
Criticizing Israel is not antisemitic. Defend Hudson Valley's freedom of speech and sign the petition below.
This seriously flawed definition can be used to censor First Amendment free speech rights, and must not be given an influential voice. If adopted already, as New York State and some counties have done , it must be amended or replaced. We cannot allow protestors, teachers, students, workers, and public officials to be exposed to criminal liability, censure, firing, or false accusations of antisemitism simply because they dare criticize the state of Israel.

1 year of continued genocide, 1 year of continued resistance‼️‼️‼️
Join us this Sunday in Poughkeepsie to the continued blockade and occupation of Gaza
Although we are protesting the one year continuation of the current blockade, we remember the 75 years of ethnic cleansing and resistance and each of our predecessors who came before us.

Mark one year of Israel's genocidal assault on Gaza
Our last farmers' market of the season.
We handed out over 150 flyers and had many good talks about Israeli war crimes. Very few were angry, and most thanked us for supporting Palestine.

We offered a free slice of watermelon, the iconic symbol for a free Palestine.
Talking to people is probably the best way to spread the word about what Israel is doing in Gaza and the West Bank. The starvation of tens of thousands just isn't covered in our national media.
So have a piece of watermelon, and discuss what we can all do stop this carnage. The genocide is being waged in all our names.
