Towards a New Year’s Revolution: Fighting for Our Lives in 2024

Today, we are living in an historic moment. All over the world, and here in the United States, people are rejecting their government’s support for Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in Gaza. Millions in the Arab world, in the Global South, and in the West have taken to the streets to say No More War/End the Israeli Occupation/Free Palestine. But the leaders are not listening to the majority voices. When 60% of Americans are calling for a ceasefire and only a dismal few representatives have come forward to actually introduce and support legislation calling for a ceasefire, the system is beyond broken. Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is even accusing people who support Palestinians of being agents for Russia, and President Genocide Joe Biden has proudly declared himself a Zionist while sending billions of dollars to Israel to kill more Palestinians. It is time for us, the people, to refuse once and for all, to be the silenced majority.

End the Genocide Now: A CALL TO ACTION!

We the undersigned declare our opposition to the United States government’s support and unconditional funding for the state of Israel, Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestinian land, and its merciless genocide against the Palestinian people.

We oppose U.S. imperialism in Palestine, across the Middle East, and everywhere else in the world. Both the United States and Israel are settler-colonial states built on land theft, violence against indigenous populations, and resource extraction. We refuse to see Palestinian blood shed for western oil. We support the Palestinian right to self-determination.

We fight for the rights of the oppressed everywhere in the world, including within the United States. We are opposed to fascism, capitalism, and all colonial projects.
