AWAN passed a resolution at our conference to organize actions to mark Al Nakba on the week of May 15, 2025 as a part of a national week of action.
We encourage all grassroots groups to organize protests or marches to mark the 77th anniversary of the Nakba.
We want to use these protests to raise the following demands:
Resist the ongoing Nakba!
End US aid to Israel!
Palestine will live forever!
Right of Return for All Palestinians!
No Peace On Stolen Land!
Palestinian Prisoners’ Day is commemorated every year on April 17 – a date approved by the Palestinian National Council in 1974 as a national day dedicated to the freedom of prisoners and support for their rights.
According to Addameer, Israel has over 9,500 Palestinian political prisoners. 3,405 prisoners are in administrative detention and 350 of them are children.
Here in the U.S., President Trump ordered ICE to detain Palestinian activist Mamoud Khalil. Khalil is a Columbia University student who led protests against the U.S./Israeli genocide of Palestinians in Gaza. With no legal due process, Khalil is now a political prisoner held in an ICE prison in rural Louisiana.
The Anti War Action Network calls on our supporters to organize actions to mark Palestinian Political Prisoners Day. Your action could be a protest, bannering, teach-in, etc. We just want there to be more attention drawn to the reality of how many Palestinians are being held by Israel - especially since the media has been focused on Israelis being held for over a year and a half.
Free Mahmoud Khalil!
Protesting for Palestine is NOT a crime!
No Aid to Israel!
Release All Palestinian Prisoners!
