*⏰ WED APRIL 8 | 5:30PM*
*📍 POWELL & MARKET, SAN FRANCISCO*
*This morning Trump said “A whole civilization will die tonight.” This
is the criminal threat of a madman — but a madman who controls the
deadly might of the Pentagon war machine. Trump has given a deadline for
mass destruction — open the Strait of Hormuz by 8pm ET or “every bridge
and power plant in Iran will be decimated.”*
*This illegal and unprovoked war on Iran, and Israel’s parallel campaign
of extermination against Lebanon and Palestine, has already claimed
thousands of Iranian lives and forcibly displaced over 1 million
Lebanese people.*
People in the United States need to take a stand and say — NO MORE
ENDLESS WARS Join us to protest Trump’s assault on the Iranian people
and demand an end to the war NOW. Money for people’s needs — not
massacres in Iran!

*It has been 8 months since the release of our report exposing Oakland’s
shipments to the Israeli military. *We have garnered thousands of
petition signatures, hundreds of endorsements, and mobilized sectors
ranging from labor to community organizations. As we continue to build
momentum and support for the campaign, *we need you to join on. It’s our
responsibility to do everything in our power to advance the struggle for
an arms embargo in Oakland!*
*FREEDOM FOR PALESTINIAN POLITICAL PRISONERS*
*APRIL 13–19: GLOBAL WEEK OF ACTION *
<https://pymusa.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=2cd9b0d17516e9604ebd07478&id=db46e79a7e&e=2fb42429e2>
*The campaign to Free All Palestinian Political Prisoners calls upon
people of conscience across the globe to take action for Palestinian
political prisoners from April 13 to April 19, as part of an
international Week of Action.*
The liberation of our prisoners has always been at the forefront of the
Palestinian struggle. For over 77 years, Zionist prisons have sought to
crush the Palestinian revolution, but our prisoners remain steadfast in
their commitment to struggle. As the occupation wages a brutal campaign
of mass imprisonment, torture, and murder, and repression intensifies
here in the imperial core, centering the prisoners’ struggle is more
urgent than ever. This week, and every week, we hope to honor the
steadfast struggle of our political prisoners and reaffirm our
collective commitment to liberation.

*On March 30, 2026, the Knesset passed a law mandating the death penalty
for Palestinians in military courts – making execution the default
sentence in certain cases, with hanging to be carried out within 90
days. At the same time, conditions inside prisons continue to
deteriorate. Today, over 9,400 Palestinian prisoners are held in Zionist
jails, many without charge under administrative detention.*
*We will be joined by Khaled Mahajneh, one of the first journalists to
enter the infamous Sde Teiman detention camp. At a time when prisoners
are facing a genocide behind bars and under the threat of execution, we
must take action*

The University of San Francisco’s Palestinian Student Association is
delighted to invite students, educators, advocates, and members of our
Bay Area community to an evening of sharing in Palestinian culture
through food, art, and music. Join us at the second annual charity banquet!
In celebration of the strength of community organizing, in answer to
Gaza’s call, and in memory of artist Ahmad Kaabour, our theme for the
evening is: OUNADIKOM: WE CALL ON YOU
We are proud to be partnering with the Palestinian American Coalition
which has launched a prosthetics program in Palestine, providing urgent
care to those wounded by ongoing catastrophic atrocities. All ticket
proceeds will be donated to support these initiatives.

*MISTRIAL DECLARED IN THE STANFORD 11 TRIAL, NO CONVICTIONS*
After weeks of deliberation, the trial against the Stanford 11 was ruled
a mistrial due to the jury’s inability to reach a verdict. This confirms
what we have known from the start: the prosecution’s case is weak,
lacking merit or substance to convict beyond a reasonable doubt. This
outcome also reflects a shifting public consensus on Palestine. Corrupt
prosecutors can no longer push politically motivated cases against
activists without facing scrutiny and resistance.
*With a mistrial ruling, the students face a second trial because the DA
still refuses to accept that the community does not support the unjust
criminalization of protest. Another trial would be a desperate move by
the DA — a punitive waste of public funds to harass and intimidate
students.*
*🚨TAKE ACTION NOW: Demand an end to the political prosecution of the
Stanford 11. Demand that DA Rosen drop the charges and refuse a second
trial!*

*📍Jackson Hall, Mondavi Center for the Performing Arts in Davis, CA*
*⏰ Sunday, April 26 | 2pm*
Rooted in tradition and alive with momentum, Al-Juthoor (“Roots”) and
Aswat Ensemble unite for a powerful evening of dabke, music, and
storytelling. Drawing on dance and sound from Palestine and the Arab
Levant/Bilad al-Sham, this collaboration affirms culture as something
lived, shared, and carried forward.
On stage, grounded footwork meets driving rhythms and rich vocals in a
charged exchange that transforms performance into a site of unity and
voice. Structured in two movements—Resistance and Land Back—the
performance moves from a powerful exploration of resistance to a vision
of return and reclamation, honoring relationships to land, memory, and
heritage.
