NOT ON OUR DIME

END NY FUNDING OF ISRAELI SETTLER VIOLENCE

BREAKING: The Not On Our Dime! Act, which bars New York nonprofits from funding Israeli war crimes, was just re-introduced. This is urgent: since October, nonprofits have funneled millions to Israeli military units devastating Gaza and emboldened settlers expelling Palestinians from their homes across the West Bank. — BREAKING: The Not On Our Dime!

It’s going to take all of us to show our state legislators that New Yorkers stand with the Not On Our Dime! Act. Follow @notonourdimeny on Instagram for ways to plug in

JVP HV joined @jvpny as well as members from as far away as Alaska in DC to tell our government STOP ARMING ISRAEL. And today Netanyahu was invited to come speak to congress, and we say this WAR CRIMINAL is not welcome here. Our US tax dollars are being used to murder the people of Palestine. No more $ for Israel’s war crimes. Arrest Netanyahu

As the fifth year of @upstateartweekend kicks off,

As the fifth year of @upstateartweekend kicks off, an autonomous group of activists across the Hudson Valley have been calling out the elite NYC art world centered “festival”. Their posters, stickers and signage target the ways in which Upstate Arts Weekend and founder Helen Toomer’s work have stayed silent around the ongoing genocide in Palestine, been exclusionary to local working class artists in the Hudson Valley, fed the ongoing housing crisis, and brought more gentrification to the area.

Wheat pasted posters such as “GENTRIFYING UPSTATE COLONIZING PALESTINE” and “UPSTATE ART WEEKEND’S SILENCE = VIOLENCE” were posted in the neighborhood’s and bulletin boards in the towns that UPAW visitors will be visiting. As well as poster that said “WHAT DOES THE SCHOOL BRING TO THE HUDSON VALLEY OTHER THAN GENTRIFICATION” and “ UPSTATE ARTS WEEKEND: STAND WITH PACBI NOW!! YOU ARE NINE MONTHS LATE” on the entrances, signage and walls of galleries, museums and institutions that continue to uphold the colonial, white centered, capitalist values, while staying silent about Palestine.

While this action was sent to us by an autonomous group of activists, they do invite the public to check out www.celebrate845.com/upstateartweekend
and learn more about the ways @celebrate.845 is calling for Upstate Arts Weekend to stand with the Palestinian people and #dobetter for the community and artists who live full time in the Hudson Valley 🇵🇸🔥🔥🇵🇸

Activists disrupted the annual Albany Fourth of July festival with the sounds of the ongoing genocide in Palestine. There is no celebrating during a genocide 🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸
