Ways you can help Palestine :
(Below info courtesy of https://uscpr.org/oct-2023-protests/):
Over 2 million Palestinian people trapped in Gaza are living through genocide in real time, as Israel bombs, starves, and displaces them. Your solidarity is vital, and more important than ever.
There are no “both sides” in Israel’s 75+ years of ethnic cleansing, apartheid, and colonialism. The Israeli regime, with one of the most advanced militaries in the world funded by the U.S. government by the billions, has always been the colonizer and aggressor attacking and expelling Indigenous Palestinian people. There are no “both sides” when Israel has trapped more than 2 million Palestinian people (mostly refugees) in an open-air cage in Gaza in unlivable conditions for 17 years, repeatedly bombing them in horrific massacres year after year. That level of inhumane violence would provoke a response from anyone.
Apartheid is a crime against humanity, and Israel commits countless war crimes on a daily basis. It’s vital to address the root of the problem and end Israel’s oppression of Palestinians.
Take action now in solidarity with the Palestinian people, to fight for a liberated future for all, in a world without racism and oppression.

2. Take action to stop the Gaza genocide
From Gaza to Jenin, we have witnessed Israel’s brutal massacres of Palestinian people again and again. We have watched our U.S. politicians and media outlets dismiss Israel’s killings, dehumanizing Palestinians as they live under Israel’s apartheid every day, only to issue condemnations the moment a Palestinian person resists. These massacres are funded into existence by our U.S. tax dollars, with a blank check for $3.8+ billion to the Israeli military every year.
Call: Call your members of Congress to demand a ceasefire and de-escalation.
Email: Tell your member of Congress to #StopArmingIsrael.
If you’re on social media, be sure to amplify what’s happening in Gaza using this Twitter list and share this action toolkit on Instagram.
