On the ground at the largest pro-Palestine march in US history

The largest pro-Palestine rally in US history took place this past Saturday, Nov. 4, in the heart of Washington DC. As nations and human rights organizations around the world warn that Israel is committing acts of genocide with its scorched-earth bombing and ground invasion of Gaza, and as Israeli military and settler violence increases in the Occupied West Bank, people from all over the US descended upon the nation’s capital to demand an immediate ceasefire, an end to US aid to Israel, and an end to Israel’s 75-year Occupation of Palestine. And organizers of Saturday’s march, along with other international organizations, are also calling for a national day of action on Thurs., Nov. 9 (). Many corporate media outlets have either ignored, attempted to downplay, or misconstrued the tone and scale of the Free Palestine! National March on Washington, but TRNN Editor-in-Chief Maximillian Alvarez and veteran reporter Jaisal Noor were on the ground speaking directly to organizers and attendees about why they were marching, why it’s important, and what feels different about this moment.
