Or Bring White Kites

Refaat Alareer's poem "If I Must Die" became a powerful symbol of Palestinian resilience and hope, urging people to fly white kites in his memory, with the hope that a child in Gaza sees it and thinks of love and hope.

How to make your own kite (scroll at the link for instructions): https://sbkitefest.net/make-your-own-kite-2/.

Fly a kite and help us circulate petitions to block US weapons to Israel. Say NO to genocide in Gaza. Say YES to freedom for Palestine.

Feel free to bring friends, a blanket, a picnic, a kite and copies of Alareer’s poem or other poems from Palestine to distribute to kite flyers and their families.
