Stop Arming Israel & Fund Our Communities

BFP Team
Thursday, May 11, 2023
Call To Action, Israel/Palestine, News

With your federal U.S. tax dollars, the Israeli military is bombing Palestinian people in Gaza right now, destroying their homes, and stealing their native land, in violation of U.S. laws. Due to Israel’s inhumane blockade, Palestinians have no way to flee. Already, Israel has killed 15 Palestinian people.

Show up in solidarity with the Palestinian people at an action near you this weekend: see NYC actions below and check out uscpr.org/Nakba75

At the same page, you can take action to #StopArmingIsrael. Look up: how much do people in your city pay to fund these atrocities? Imagine: When we stop arming Israel, what could we fund instead? Join us in building the movement for justice.

Brooklyn For Peace


Jun 3, 2023—Our BFP volunteers were out in force today at a new location with our Ukraine Peace Table. This time we set up at the busy and popular Ft. Greene Park Greenmarket. We got a great reception with quite a few folks stopping to chat and signing our petition (bit.ly/bfp-ukraine-petition) calling on our Brooklyn House Members to speak out for peace, a cease-fire and diplomacy rather than a military solution and constant escalation. Using war in the 21st century to solve these disputes is the certain route to a dangerous wider war and maybe even a nuclear conflict. Thank you to all our volunteers – you did a great job and performed a valuable service: helping to win peace in Ukraine so that lives can be saved and a wider war avoided.  ★ JOIN US next Saturday at 10:30, same location:  ★ Ft Greene Greenmarket – De Kalb Avenue and Washington Park (Washington Park = Cumberland Street). You can let us know if you’ll be joining us next week by emailing pej@brooklynpeace.org
