Rallying in support of the Palestinian struggle for liberation and mobilizing in defense of all of the Palestinian children currently being detained by the settler Zionist state and demanding their release. with Richard Falk, professor emeritus of international law and practice at Princeton University, the former United Nations Human Rights Rapporteur in the Occupied Territories and the author or co-author of more than 20 books, including Chaos and Counterrevolution: After the Arab Spring. and The NY4Palestine Coalition rally at Grand Central Station
Well discuss with Prof. Falk the recent proactive, sinister maneuvers by the Trump regime and Israels far right Likud party and how they have exacerbated the long standing and ever deepening crisis for Palestinian self-determination and the humanitarian tolls in the occupied territories which are heart-rending and maddening. Prof. Falk will talk about the plight of the Palestinians which can be seen as the most enduring residue of the modern encounter between the Arabs and the West. There are few situations that are so clearly one sided and barbaric as the Israeli occupation of Palestine.
It is in this light that we a re united in our belief that Israels flouting of international law, continued military occupation of Palestine, and systematic discrimination against Palestinians is unacceptable and we bring you the voices of protest along with the analysis of Prof. Falk to stimulate broader support for Palestinian rights; to take on corporations that profit from the occupation, the US government that aids and abets Israel, and the media that propagates the interests of the reactionary Israeli Lobby. We believe in people power. The more of us standing together, raising the call for justice and equality, the louder our voice. We know that united we can take on the might of governments, corporations, and the media " and we can win.
