On Friday, October 18, during evening rush hour, members of the Alliance for Water Justice in Palestine participated with more than 150 activists from Greater Boston in Silence on the Subway to show our rage and opposition to the Israeli/US genocide in Palestine and Israel's escalating bombardment of Lebanon. Boarding the subway from many neighborhoods, we carried shrouds representing the martyred, and silently distributed flyers to riders.
Converging at South Station, we silently filed into the Atrium and stood in parallel lines that reached from one end of the station to the other, then placed the shrouds in the center for commuters and workers to also bear witness. To complete Silence on the Subway, we crossed Atlantic Ave., stopping traffic, and proceeded to the Rose Greenway, where, in solidarity, we demanded a Free Free Palestine.
