Well, the first thing I remember is that there was no news coverage of it. So 400,000 people march on DC, one of the largest marches in history. It was nowhere to be found in mainstream media coverage.

So what I remember first and foremost about the protests is that they were nowhere to be found on mainstream media, which was expected. But what I also remember from the actual day of and from all of the pro-Palestine rallies is that I have never seen a more multi-faith, more diverse group of people consistently coming out for Palestine against the genocide in Gaza that I have this time around.

And I think that has been the experience all around. There has been a pronounced Jewish presence Jewish Voice for Peace, If Not Now, other anti-Zionist Jewish groups, groups that are against the genocide, against the occupation, former Israeli soldiers even, you know, that have been showing up at these protests.

There's been a pronounced presence from Native American groups, Indigenous groups, all across the board, right? Christians, Jews, Muslims, I've never seen more diversity at these rallies than I've seen this time around, which I think is a sign of where things are going.
