DESCRIPTION:VIGIL for Shireen Abu Akleh & All Journalists Killed in Palestine\nHONORING 
 PALESTINIAN JOURNALISTS, STORYTELLERS and WITNESS BEARERS\nMay 11, 2024 at 
 4-6 pm Ferry Building (Harry Bridges Plaza), San Francisco\n\nMay 11th 
 marks two years since Palestinian-American journalist Shireen Abu Akleh was 
 killed by an Israeli military sniper. There still has been no justice for 
 Shireen. This impunity has led to an unprecedented attack on 
 journalists.\n\nAn estimated 140 journalists and media workers have been 
 killed in Palestine since October 7th, with more arrested, injured and 
 missing. JOIN US: for a family friendly vigil and procession, to grieve 
 collectively, honor our slain witnesses, demand accountability, and end the 
 targeting of journalists and what the International Court of Justice has 
 deemed a “plausible” genocide in Gaza.\n\nWe will GATHER at 4pm in 
 Harry Bridges Plaza--directly in front of the Ferry Building between North 
 and South bound lanes of The Embarcadero street.\n\nWe will participate in 
 a PROCESSION heading South along the Bay, led by 141 people each carrying 
 the name of one of the 141 journalists killed in Gaza.\n\nWe will process 
 to Rincon Park (near the giant bow and arrow "Cupid's Span" sculpture), 
 where we will HONOR JOURNALISTS killed in Palestine--reading their names 
 and music and poetry. Together we will call for accountability and an END 
 TO ISRAEL & US IMPUNITY.\n\nMusic by Tarik “Excentrik” 
 Kazaleh.\n\n*Please wear black.\n\n*Screen printed journalist-specific 
 signs will be provided to those who would like to carry a sign.\n\nWe are 
 an ad hoc group of concerned journalists, community & family of Shireen.
