This Sunday, May 4, 2014, Protest Israeli occupation, colonization and apartheid.  21st Street & Capitol Ave, Sacramento, 11am.    

The local Israel-lobby affiliate, the Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) whose mission includes to “Protect Israel” is holding its annual “Celebrating Israel” event that it erroneously conflates with “Jewish Heritage”.  There is nothing to celebrate about Israel’s horrendous well-documented human rights violations, which do not reflect Judaism or Jewish values. 
The event goes from 11am-3pm and we plan to banner the whole time.  You can sign up for a shift by emailing SacReg4PalestinianRights at gmail.com or just come!

Also this week:
