Dear John,

Just as we were wrapping up the People’s Conference for Palestine in Detroit, Israel dropped two ton bombs on Palestinian families sheltering in tents, murdering 45 people at once and injuring hundreds. Many of the martyrs from that night were burned alive. Despite Biden’s claims that an invasion of Rafah was a “red line,”Israel continues its brutal assault. Gazans will keep dying every time Biden fails to act. 

👉 Take action TODAY and tell Congress to place an arms embargo on Israel: NO MORE US BOMBS TO KILL PALESTINIANS!

👉 More than 3500 conference participants have pledged to take matters into our own hands with a call to action: wear red and surround the White House on June 8. 

We’ve seen children with their limbs blown off, dead bodies piled up, people burned alive, streets full of body parts and blood, and entire neighborhoods leveled to the ground. Our last night in Detroit, an image circulated of a man holding up a child’s burnt body with their head completely missing. The Biden Administration was quick to support Israel’s bombardment of Palestinians after debunked stories of beheaded babies on October 7th became the main talking point. Where are they now that the beheaded babies are on all of our Instagram feeds?

Enough is enough. As long as our elected officials continue arming this genocide with our tax dollars, we need to be there to tell them to stop putting blood on our hands. We need to do two things: 

1. An arms embargo campaign was launched at the People’s Conference for Palestine, and we need your help to flood Congress with our demand.
2. Join us on June 8 in DC to show Biden what a red line looks like. We will circle the White House in red (and our pink Keffiyehs) to expose his failure. What we need now is people power.

Keep the momentum going. We’re applying pressure for Palestine on all fronts this summer, starting with education. Enroll in our Gaza Summer School for a summer-long online education series where you’ll gain in-depth knowledge and vital skills to make a real impact for Palestine. You’ll learn from experienced educators and organizers and be given the tools to take action in your community!

👉 Gaza needs us, keep taking action:

• Far from DC? Join the Bay Area's Red Line action on June 7!
