Power Hour: Free DC, Free Palestine

Join us for a Power Hour on Thursday, September 25 where we'll make calls to Congress and urge them to act in the interest of our communities, from D.C. to Palestine.

The National Guard has been deployed to D.C. for over 40 days, inciting fear and targeting the most vulnerable in our communities. This has taken place while the genocide against Palestinian people continues. People across the U.S. have made it clear that we want military off our streets and we want the U.S. funded genocide to end. We know that militarism anywhere means death and destruction. The millions of dollars poured into policing the unhoused or targeting immigrants and Black youth, and the billions of dollars poured into weapons and bombs could be used instead of take care of our communities most urgent needs on housing, healthcare, education, climate resilience, and so much more.

Congress has a responsibility to take action and listen to the thousands and thousands who have been in the streets for a Free D.C. and a Free Palestine!

Together on Thursday we will contact our Congressional representatives and urge them to bring an end to the military occupation of D.C., defend D.C.'s right to govern itself, and draw the connections to the historic in roads the Palestine movement has made; including the Block the Bombs Act which now has more than 50+ sponsors.

Register today to receive the call information.

This power hour is co-hosted by Harriet's Wildest Dreams, Free DC, US Campaign for Palestinian Rights, About Face: Veterans Against the War, Jewish Voice for Peace, DC for Palestine, and Rising Majority.
