April 15, six months into the genocide of Palestine. There have been 40,000 martyrs, 70,000 injured, two million people displaced, and tens of thousands unaccounted for. April 15, we are joining the call for a day of action to Free Palestine. This is a call for everyone to plug in and act.
STRIKE
No school, no work, no shopping while Gaza is burning. Shut down your businesses. Stay out of service. We owe everything for Palestine.
We are calling for a national strike to take place on Tax Day to put pressure on the US government to end the genocide in Gaza. We are calling on all community organizations, mosques, churches, businesses and workers to go on strike on April 15th. We reject the fact that it is our labor and our money that is arming the zionist entity and slaughtering Palestinians. We reject zionist politicians who vote to put our taxes towards genocide.
Get everyone you know to take part in the strike. Tell all your family and friends, classmates and co-workers, to strike for Gaza. Organize a protest in your neighborhood, bring out your entire community, and join your city’s main protest as a local contingent. Strike and stand together, united for Palestine.
BLOCKADE
The global economy is complicit in genocide.
Join us in blocking the arteries of capitalism and jamming the wheels of production. As Yemen is bombed to secure global trade, and billions of dollars are sent to the Zionist war machine, we must recognize that the global economy is complicit in genocide. Work together to disrupt and blockade economic logistical hubs and the flow of capital. Identify and blockade major choke points in the economy where you live, focusing on points of production and circulation causing the most economic impact as witnessed in recent months with actions such as the port shutdowns in Oakland, California and Melbourne, Australia.
In New York City, we are encouraging folks to take autonomous actions, form crews and contingents, think creatively and act bravely. Tax Day is one of the most lucrative days for the New York Stock Exchange, and disrupting it will hurt the bottom line of these war profiteers and send a message that they will not get away with committing a genocide. At 2:00 PM, we are calling on all New Yorkers to flood Wall Street for Gaza and show the world that these are our streets.
Think creatively, move autonomously, and act courageously. Although the WOL march will begin at 2:00 PM, we encourage groups to take action all day and as early as possible. Learn more at about the Co-ordinated Economic Blockade here.
April 15. Six months of genocide and it is only getting worse. The zionist entity will not stop until they see the Nakba through. We cannot stop until we see the liberation of Palestine, from the river to the sea, within our lifetime.
We encourage all supporters of Palestine in the New York area to download the flyers below and post them everywhere you can. Post the flyer on your social media accounts and websites, circulate them among your networks and communities. Print out the flyers and put them up everywhere on the streets, in your masjids, in your community centers, and anywhere you can fit an 8.5×11 piece of paper.
