7/1 (Online) 7-9:30pm - Youth Against US Empire: No War on Iran! No Genocide in Palestine! (CODEPINK)

Tuesday, July 01, 2025 at 7:00pm - 9:30pm (EDT) - Online

Youth Against US Empire: No War on Iran! No genocide in Palestine! The US and Israel's attacks on Iran over the past two weeks are just the latest in a long history of U.S. attacks that only bring more pain and suffering — not for the powerful, but for everyday people. It’s families, workers, kids, and elders who always pay the price — in Iran, in Palestine, across Southwest Asia, in Haiti, Sudan, the Congo, and here at home.

Meanwhile, the US is spending nearly $850 billion on the military in 2025 — while so many of us in our generation are struggling with food insecurity, skyrocketing rent, underfunded schools, student debt, and no access to basic healthcare. Most young people in the U.S. don’t want another war. We want the government to invest in what we actually need: care, education, clean water, affordable housing, mental health support, and a real shot at a better future.

On this virtual call we will:

  • Connect with other young people in rage & grief.

  • Hear important analysis of WTF the US and Israel just did in Iran.

  • Uplift ongoing Palestinian-led struggle against Israel’s US-backed genocide in Gaza.

  • Share resources for taking action to stop war with Iran, and beyond.

Featuring special guests Clarissa Bitar, Hoda Katebi, Dissenters youth organizers, and more!

We can’t stay silent. We’re calling on young people — especially those in the U.S. who care about justice, who are scared about rising authoritarianism, and who want to build a truly regenerative society — to stand up, speak out, and take action.

Join us on Tuesday July 1 to demand No War with Iran & to Block Bombs to Israel!
