The Philadelphia International Action Center (Philly IAC) organized the Palestinian Youth speak to Philadelphia event at the Calvary Church on 48th and Baltimore, Tuesday, Aug. 12.
Neighbors gathered to celebrate the resistance of the Palestinian people. Three Palestinian-American youth spoke about ways in which we can help contribute to the resistance to free Palestine.
Topics covered were women's involvement in the Palestinian resistance movement, genocide and personal experiences with the movement.
I covered this event for local paper the Westside Weekly in West Philadelphia. Here is a link to my story.
Side note: For some reason, the link won't open on iPones. It works on my laptop and Android tablet. I think it has to do with the Westside Weekly's website.
Anyway, check out the story.
