Equal rights for Palestinians now including equal voting rights, rights to move freely without racist fascist checkpoints, and the right to not be ethnically cleansed.

Peace not apartheid and genocide.
Equal rights not carpet bombing.

Allow food, water & medicine to Gaza!

We need #RankedChoiceVoting,
#PublicFundingOfElections,
#WorkerCoops, &
