Stop Starving Gaza 5 min Noise Demo from wherever you are and banner drop, flyering and noise demo @ Burlington City Hall, 11:15AM - As the US and Israel continue their systemic starvation of Gaza, the citizens of Vermont have resorted to privately mourning, communal vigils, and bleak discussions fueled by our collective outrage for Palestine. We’re also calling upon Vermonters statewide to make some noise together; no matter where you are (especially home, work, or public!), join us on Saturday 8/9 at 11:15 for 5 minutes of banging pots and pans together to remind both ourselves and those shamefully complicit forces in power of the Trump Administration’s active planning and bankrolling of genocide. Turn your rage into sound by banging pots and pans together to call out this Administration’s manufactured starvation of children. This is an opportunity to engage in conversations with your coworkers, family, and neighbors to educate them that the ‘starvation in Palestine’ is a manmade one, not just by Israel, but by us, by our government! Remind them that it is our responsibility to demand our that representatives take action; to oppose the farcical aid being used to justify genocide; to oppose undemocratic legislation such as bipartisan H.310 bill, which would target activists and organizations by conflating a free Palestine with anti-semitism; and to support the Apartheid Free Community Campaign. Whether your community will be holding a vigil at this time or will be able to at a different time, please join us in making some noise for Palestine; now’s the time to be heard!
And join us in Burlington at 11:15 at Burlington City Hall for a banner drop, flyering, and joining in the tradition of the cacerolazo (bring your pots and pans!) to orient our rage into some defined targets! Instagram / @vermontcpl
