Seattle: Shut It Down for Palestine
2024-01-20 18:00 - 20:00 | WA
🚨SEATTLE: SHUT IT DOWN FOR PALESTINE THIS SATURDAY 1/20 🇵🇸
As part of the international day of action to #shutitdown4palestine, we will be demonstrating at the U-District light rail station to denounce the links between the publicly-funded Sound Transit and multinational conglomerate, Siemens, who works to enhance Israeli occupation and colonisation in Palestine.
Over $118,000,000 of our state taxes already directly fund the Israeli military, but unfortunately, our taxes and economy are even more intertwined with Zionist occupation and U.S. imperialism. In 2016/2017, Sound Transit entered into a $714,718,000 contract with Siemens to acquire 152 light rail vehicles. This is despite the fact that another company can produce the same vehicles and is not actively breaking international law by supporting Israeli occupation and colonialism.
Right now, the Sound Transit board is in the process of acquiring 10 more light rail vehicles from Siemens at the cost of over $96 million dollars, paid for by our tax dollars!
* We demand an end to the Sound Transit contracts with Siemens!
* Sound Transit, cut ties with genocide!
* End all U.S. aid to Israel!
* Immediate ceasefire on Gaza!
* End the Siege on Gaza!
* Release all Palestinian prisoners!
* End the occupation!

Global General Strike to End the Seige on Gaza
2024-01-21 - 2024-01-28 | WA
URGENT CALL TO ACTION! @wizard_bisan1 has called for a global general strike to end the siege on Gaza and call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire. It has been over 100 days of this continued genocide in Gaza. Palestinian and Palestinian solidarity organizations in Seattle have joined forces to uplift this call from Gaza. Swipe through the slides to see how you can participate in the economic boycott and strike and stay tuned to see actions we will be uplifting throughout the week.
In Bisan’s words, “we are human beings like you. We had beautiful cities, many lives and dreams. They were destroyed. You can make a difference and stop this genocide. Do not despair and continue until the ceasefire” #FreePalestine #StopTheSeigeOnGaza #PermanentCeasefireNow #EndTheOccupation #FromTheRiverToTheSea #GlobalStrike #GeneralStrike #BDS

Discussion: Intersection of Global Struggles for Liberation
2024-01-26 13:00 - 15:00 | Evergreen State College, 2700 Evergreen Pkwy NW, Olympia, WA, 98505
The Reinterpreting Liberation program and the Center for Community-Based Learning and Action (CCBLA) at The Evergreen State College present a discussion about how global struggles for liberation intersect.

With a focus on the genocide in Gaza, Nada Elia and Jesse Hagopian will discuss how global struggles for liberation intersect and how this informs their work as activists and educators. This event, which is open to the community, is moderated by Jen Marlowe, founder of DonkeySaddle Projects, author, and filmmaker.

Jesse Hagopian has been an educator for over twenty years and taught for over a decade at Seattle’s Garfield High School, the site of the historic boycott of the MAP test. He is an editor for the social justice periodical Rethinking Schools and the book More Than a Score: The New Uprising Against High-Stakes Testing. He is a co-editor of Black Lives Matter at School, Teaching for Black Lives, Teacher Unions and Social Justice, and an organizer with the Black Lives Matter at School movement. In 2011, Jesse participated in the Interfaith Peace Builder’s historic first African Heritage Delegation that brought 14 African Americans to Israel and Palestine to meet with civil society organizations, human rights groups, and grassroots activists to better understand the conflict. Jesse will join the panel over Zoom.

Nada Elia teaches Arab American Studies and Cultural Studies at Fairhaven College, WWU, where she is affiliated with the Women, Gender and Sexuality Studies Program. A scholar-activist, Nada is a member of the Palestinian Feminist Collective, and regularly publishes editorials about gender, activism, and transnational struggles. She is the author of Greater than the Sum of Our Parts: Feminism, Inter/Nationalism, and Palestine. She has co-edited Critical Ethnic Studies: A Reader, the INCITE! Women of Color Against Violence Activist Toolkit, and the award-winning The Revolution Will Not Be Funded, and has contributed chapters to numerous anthologies, including, most recently, Palestine: A Socialist Introduction.

From Haiti 2 Palestine [Virtual] Teach In
2024-02-03 08:00 - 17:00 | WA
VIRTUAL TEACH IN! SAVE THE DATE! On Sunday March 3rd we are co-hosting a teach in featuring speakers from @samidounseattle and @haitiaction to bring to light the dire situation in Haiti right now.
On February 29th, 2004 democratically elected president Jean Bertrand Aristide was kidnapped and flown out of Haiti and into exile by US forces. Since, the country has had an array of US backed governments that have resulted in the crisis Haitians are living today.
In October 2023, around the same time that the Pal3stinian resistance breached the wall in Gaza, the UN approved a US backed Kenyan led 12 month military mission to “bring peace” to Haiti. Yes, the UN approved to fly Kenyan soldiers to Haiti to bring “stability”.
There’s plenty that Haiti and Pal3stine have in common and we want to bring that to the fore during this teach in, especially during this important 20 year anniversary of the coup that took Aristide and the Fanmi Lavalas Party out of power.
The teach in will take place March 3rd over zoom from 11am – 12:30 pm pst. Please register at the link below! You will see the zoom information once you complete the short form 🙏🏽
tinyurl.com/H2Pteachin
We will start with a historical situationer for both Haiti and Palestine before listening to a discussion between organizers from Samidoun Prisoner Solidarity Network and the Haiti Action Committee. This teach in is intended to give you the context and information you need to help uplift the Haitian narrative and deepen your understanding about Palestine solidarity work.
See you there!

Shut It Down for Palestine: Choose Your Own Adventure!
2024-02-04 | WA
FEBRUARY 4 – THE SHUTDOWN CONTINUES! The next global day of action to #ShutitDown for Palestine is February 4. As the Zionist-led, US-backed assault on Palestine and the wider region continues, we call upon people of conscience everywhere to organize rallies, shutdowns, and other actions in your cities and locales.
Both the political establishment and media in the imperial core are relying on the length of this genocidal campaign to tire us out and wear us down. But our movement for liberation has not waned, and will only continue to grow stronger and amass more power with time. Until all our demands are met, we will continue to shut it down and prevent business as usual from continuing. Against the wishes of Joe Biden, Justin Trudeau, and other Western imperialists funding and signing off on this genocide, we will keep raising our voices loud and putting our bodies on the line.
In the words of the revolutionary Samah Idriss, “If we abandon Palestine, we abandon ourselves.” At this critical juncture for our movement, it is our responsibility to raise the stakes and increase the momentum of all that we have built. The struggle continues — we’ll see you in the streets on February 4!

Siemens is the main contractor for the Euro-Asia Interconnector, an underwater electric cable that will connect Israel’s illegal settlements in occupied Palestine to power grids in Europe.
Due to its cooperation with the Zionist occupation, Siemens has been placed on the international Boycott, Divest, and Sanctions (BDS) Movement’s list of targeted boycotts. This designation is a call to action–we will not allow our community institutions to be doing business with corporations that profit from Israeli apartheid!

Shut It Down: Hands Off Rafah
2024-02-12 18:00 - 20:00 | WA
SEATTLE- EMERGENCY ACTION TOMORROW: Tonight, the Israeli military’s genocidal assault targeted Rafah, the city that holds more than 1.4 million Palestinians, the majority of whom were displaced from elsewhere in Gaza. Over 70 martyrs and over 230 injured have already been reported in the US-funded Israeli strikes targeting homes, and mosques where many were sheltering. Israel is threatening a ground invasion in Rafah. We call on our community to take the streets to defend Rafah, Gaza, and all of Palestine. We assert that Rafah is a red line, and must mobilize to demand an end to this genocidal assault. HANDS OFF RAFAH NOW! 📍University of Washington Station 🗓️ Mon Feb 12 ⏱️ 6:00 PM

Rise Up for Rafah
2024-02-17 12:00 - 14:00 | Westlake Center, 400 Pine Street, Seattle, WA, 98033, United States
🚨EMERGENCY ACTION 🚨RISE UP FOR RAFAH! Join us on Saturday, February 17 at 12 pm at Westlake Center to rise up for Rafah. On Sunday night, the genocidal Israeli state began a brutal assault on Rafah, the southernmost part of Gaza. In the last 24 hours, 112 Palestinians were martyred and 173 others were injured. Over the past few months, people from all over Gaza have been displaced to Rafah. Gazans now have nowhere left to go.
Meanwhile, in our own backyard Boeing is directly supplying the genocide in Gaza. Boeing has supplied Israel with 1000 smart bombs and 1800 GPS-guidance bomb kits, in addition to regular shipments of Apache helicopters, F-15 fighter jets, and Hellfire missiles. These weapons have led to the complete demolition of schools, residential buildings, and the targeting of civilians, contributing to over 27,000 deaths over the last 3 months.
It is our responsibility to resist this occupation and genocide. Since we are complicit in it, we must refuse to be complacent.
Join us in taking to the streets to show our unwavering support and solidarity for the people of Rafah, Gaza, and all of Palestine. From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free!
HANDS OFF RAFAH!
END THE OCCUPATION OF PALESTINE NOW!
BOEING – STOP PROFITEERING OFF OF WAR AND GENOCIDE!
