We continue to be devastated by the escalating violence in the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. We stand against genocide. We stand against antisemitism. We stand against Islamophobia, xenophobia, and oppression in all its forms.
We grieve the loss of children and their families and we stand in solidarity with all those who yearn to live in peace, safety and their full humanity.
We continue to hold innocent civilians tight in love and protection as we demand collective liberation, justice and safety for all peoples and children of all colors, faiths, and identities.
