Support our Community. Defend our Survival.

Heritage Park. Olympia, WA.

The People’s March will begin at Heritage Park at Noon, where we will gather and hear from speakers about the following issues before taking to the streets to demand justice. We will rally at Heritage Park and then march to the Capitol where there will be a second rally.

The Festival of Resistance will begin immediately after the march at the WFSE 443 meeting rooms, 906 Columbia SW, Room 205, in downtown Olympia. The aim is to build a united front against the intensification of authoritarianism and oppression, locally, nationally and globally by the incoming Trump administration.

Food and drinks will be provided. There will be an opportunity to warm up, rest and socialize before we break into discussion groups to cultivate a network of movements for the coming years. Small discussion pods will share resources, ideas, and plans to build a larger and better connected movement in Olympia and beyond.

Freedom Walk For Palestine

Starting and ending locations will be shared on the MarchForPalestine.Seattle Instagram page.

Join all or part of the walk and show your support for Palestinians.

War and Resistance in Palestine – A Discussion

Posted on May 15, 2024

Join Palestine Action of the South Sound, Economics for Everyone, and Rachel Corrie Foundation for a discussion on the historical context and future implications of resistance in Gaza and the alliance between Israel and the United States. We will hear from Zarefah Baroud, Steve Niva, Cindy Corrie and Peter Bohmer.

The scale of human catastrophe in Palestine increases every day. Israeli forces have killed over 35,000 Palestinians and injured more than 83,000 since October 2023. At least 8,000 people are missing. Most of the homes, schools and hospitals have been destroyed. Despite this horrific reality, the U.S. continues sending billions of dollars in unconditional aid to Israel.

Mass protests in the U.S. – including a wave of university campus occupations— shows the amount of people challenging US material support for Israel is higher than ever. Global support for Palestinian resistance against the occupation is also at an all-time high.

During the 1948 Nakba (‘catastrophe’ in Arabic), 750,000 Palestinians were displaced, with 78% of historic Palestine seized during the establishment of Israeli statehood. To further understand the ongoing ethnic cleansing, we must examine how we got from the Nakba to this current point in time.

Israel’s war on Palestine also raises the likelihood of the conflict extending to the rest of the Middle East. For a just resolution, the Nakba that began 76 years ago must end!
