From the river to the sea may Palestine flourish and be free

To our beloved community,

Over the past few weeks, we have witnessed the impact that decades of Israeli apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and violence have had on the Palestinian people. Their cry for freedom from occupation, and to live in peace and with dignity, is a story that reverberates throughout many of our communities. We are witnessing a genocide and we demand an immediate ceasefire.

Allied Media Projects has a long history of standing with Palestinians in the face of ongoing Israeli/ US-backed violence and colonialism, and we reaffirm our position amidst what is perhaps their darkest hour since the 1948 Nakba. As a show of support for the people of Palestine, Allied Media Projects will heed the call for a Global General Strike ([link removed]) on Friday 10/20 by leaving work early on Thursday, October 19th (as AMP is closed on Fridays.) We call upon our network to join businesses, organizations, and schools around the world as they close on Friday, October 20th in solidarity with Palestinians.

Please join us, and Palestinian people everywhere, by participating in the general strike this Friday, October 20th, contacting your congress people to demand an immediate ceasefire ([link removed]) , and engaging with the resources below.
