Teach In

THURSDAY: As part of our solidarity programming with the JVP Chicago Hunger Strikers, they are hosting TWO teach-ins (Thursday July 3) in Federal Plaza Chicago IL. First, from 4-5pm, @salon.kawakib will present a teach-in on Fighting Pinkwashing as Part of Your Activism. Pinkwashing is the weaponization of queerness & LGBTQ rights by Zionism to justify occupation, war crimes, and genocide. This teach-in will explore how Palestinian liberation and LGBTQ liberation are intertwined. Second, from 5-6pm, @illinoisdivest will present a teach-in on divesting $95 million of Illinois State Treasury Funds from Israel Bonds and investing them in our communities. Join them in Federal Plaza for both of these important learning sessions!
