Weekly Rally: Justice for Sayfollah Musallet

Join PSGR’s rally on Wednesday, July 17 at 6pm as we demand justice for martyr Sayfollah “Saif” Musallet. Saif was a 20-year-old Palestinian-American from Tampa, Florida, who went to visit his family in the West Bank in early June. On July 11, Saif was murdered for defending his family’s land in Sinjil, Palestine. Israeli settlers brutally lynched Saif, and prevented medical support from reaching him for over three hours, ensuring his death.

We honor Sayfollah Musallet as a martyr, and we demand the end of the occupation in his name, and in the name of the tens of thousands of other innocent men, women, and children that have lost their lives at the hands of Israel’s genocide in Gaza.

This colonial violence is being funded by US tax dollars, and we say NO MORE! Join us in this fight! Let your voice echo from Grand Rapids to Gaza.

END US AID TO ISRAEL! STOP THE GENOCIDE! JUSTICE FOR SAYFOLLAH MUSALLET!

Weekly Rally: Gaza is Starving

EVENT ENDED

Join PSGR on Wednesday, May 28 to rally for an end to the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. The people of Gaza are at imminent risk of total starvation as Israel continues to refuse the release of food and aid trucks at the border. Starvation tactics are forbidden under international law; it is a war crime and act of genocide, yet the Western world refuses to act. We have witnessed the horror of parents pleading for their children's lives, using photos of their emaciated bodies in hopes of intervention. We can't sit through this crisis silently.
