On November 9th, in a remarkable display of solidarity, thousands of students, teachers, and activists gathered this afternoon in Bryant Park, NYC, responding to the call of “Shut It Down For Palestine.” The movement urged schools to dismiss classes early, prompting a sea of individuals to gather in front of The New York Public Library on 5th Avenue and 42nd Street.
The atmosphere was charged with passion as several speakers took the stage, the diverse crowd fueled by a shared commitment to the cause listened intently as the speakers addressed the ongoing issues in Palestine.
The demonstrators later embarked on a powerful march down 5th Avenue, turning onto 34th Street, then turned north on 8th Avenue later reaching the headquarters of The New York Times.
