Berkeley Women in Black weekly vigil

Join us when you can. We stand vigil each Friday for one hour to protest the ongoing Israeli occupation of Palestine. We distribute flyers about the situation on the ground in Palestine. We protest the murder of Palestinian adults and children, International Solidarity Workers and reporters, the torture of Palestinian and Arab prisoners including children. People are often held in prison for very long periods in terrible conditions with no counsel and no charges. Homes, olive groves and other agricultural lands are bulldozed. We protest Israel's theft of the water and building Jewish only settlements and roads and the huge apartheid Wall built on more stolen Palestinian lands. We protest the strangulation of the people of Gaza! 325 children have been killed just last month. There is widespread malnutrition. Open the border now!
