Why
For decades, Palestinian grief and rights have been silenced, denied, and demonised. Many in our community live under a constant landscape of persecution and dehumanisation, where grieving publicly and demanding freedom are met with hostility or threat. To gather in this vigil is itself an act of courage and defiance.
We come together peacefully to honour our martyrs, our loved ones killed under oppression and violence, and to speak the truth of their loss and of the oppressive occupation Palestinians endure every day. We gather to affirm life and land and refuse dehumanisation and erasure. Our rights are not conditional. Our humanity is not negotiable.
We invite people of heart and conscience to join us:
