Join us for a protest against the UAE & Bahrain’s normalization of relations w Israel. We will commemorate Palestinian martyrs as we reject the recent announcement. In addition to an the rally, a car caravan will loop around the consulate for those who wish to stay in their cars. Decorate your cars & bring signs. Please wear a mask & practice social distancing at all times!

We invite you to attend a Palestinian-led demonstration on September 25th, heeding the call for “Palestinian Return and Refugee Rights: Confronting Normalization, Towards Liberation” by Samidoun Palestinian Political Prisoners Network. Join us in honoring Palestinian martyrs and rejecting the UAE and Bahrain’s formal establishment of diplomatic ties with Israel.

This action is co-organized by Palestinian Youth Movement, SWANA LA, Al-Awda: Palestine Right to Return Coalition, and American Muslims for Palestine.

We will be gathering at the UAE Consulate – 1999 Avenue of the Stars # 1250, Los Angeles – at 2:00 PM on Friday, September 25th for an in-person demonstration. The purpose of the action will be to protest the UAE and Bahrain for their complicity and collaboration with Israel. We ask that you wear your mask at all times and stand 6 feet apart from others for the duration of the event. We invite all attendees to bring signs and posters with you to the rally. We appreciate any and all support for this important call to action.

Marking the Sabra & Shatila Massacres, and the anniversary of the Black September movement, we carry the legacy of past generations forward as we fight back against the injustices of the present. As Israel continues its relentless siege on Gaza, forges ahead with land grabs and home demolitions, and attempts to vanquish our right of return, it is critical that we reject normalization and stand with our people in Palestine, in the camps, and behind the walls of Israeli prisons. No to occupation! No to normalization!

Join us this coming Friday in taking a stand; we look forward to seeing you there!

Defend Palestine! Until Return and Liberation
