The vigil was organized by the NY-NJ chapter of Al-Awda, and by the Intentional Action Center. Among the participants were activists from the Vieques Solidarity Movement, Jews Against The Ocuupation, Young Spartacus Club, Israel CO organization Yesh Gvul, the International Socialist Organization, and other groups. There were Palestinians, Arabs from other countries, Israelis, Muslims, Jews, Christians, and plain ol'Americans.

At publication time we are aware of similar vigils that were held this week in London, Barcelona, Boston, and Berkeley. if you participated in additional protests (and per chance have photos??) please email me (link disabled).

Hebrew sign is a quote from a poem by Israeli poet Yitshac Laor, literal trans.: "And in the war between occupiers and rebels, my son, be with/ The traitors, hear the voice of your ancestors, the Jews."
