It is with a heavy heart that we mourn the death of Wadea Al-Fayoume, a six-year-old boy who was attacked in Plainfield along with his mother by their landlord on Monday. We unequivocally condemn the hatred that led to this violence. This attack may have happened in our area, but it is motivated by a campaign of hate that is being perpetrated worldwide and championed by our own elected officials. A campaign of hate that is being waged to continue funding an Israeli genocide of the Palestinian people that has taken thousands of lives and displaced hundreds of thousands of Palestinians from their home just over the last week.
Now is the time to choose which side you’re on. Now is the time to stand in solidarity with Palestinians and use the little power we hold to tell our representatives that we demand they don’t continue funding this genocide. Join us and Chicago DSA Wednesday, October 18th at 6 pm to mobilize more people to call their reps. Now is the time to show our collective power, so come join us!
