SURROUND CONGRESS WITH

"THE PEOPLE'S RED LINE FOR PALESTINE"


Flyer


The protest of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Washington D.C. visit occurred on July 24, 2024, beginning at 11 am. Organizers asked participants to wear red to form a "People's Red Line Against Genocide" around the Capitol building.

Thousands of Protesters accused Netanyahu of war crimes and crimes against humanity, particularly highlighting his actions against Palestinians in a broader effort to hold leaders accountable for their roles in conflict and human rights violations. Protesters burned an effigy of Netanyahu, but the protest remained mostly peaceful. However, police did pepper spray those who tried to cross their barriers and also arrested 23 people for various reasons at the event.
