On Thursday, May 25th, the annual Water Alliance Solidarity with Palestine stand out at Harvard University graduation took place from 2-3:30 pm in front of the student center in the heart of Harvard Square.
There were many banners, which talked about apartheid Israel, freedom for Gaza, and the theft of water in Palestine. We had good attendance with about 20-25 people and handed out 600 leaflets to graduates and their families with many good conversations. We were joined by folks from JVP Boston and others.
The leaflet highlighted the demand that the $3.8 billion the US gives Israel every year that supports Israel's apartheid government be conditioned and stopped unless Israel ends all the various forms of attacks against Palestinians in the West Bank, Gaza, and Israel itself. We will be back each year until this condition is met.
