STOP GAZA GENOCIDE TOOLKIT

Illustrations by Lena Kassicieh

Three years ago, you might have believed that the world would have stopped the mass murder, forced starvation, and destruction of an ancient, Indigenous society. Today, it’s clear that Israel’s genocide against the Palestinian people has raged on for this long because it’s funded, manufactured, and backed by one of the world’s greatest powers: the U.S.A.

The United Nations, Amnesty International, and the vast majority of genocide scholars have all declared Israel is committing genocide, while Palestinians in Gaza have sounded the alarm since day one. Every step of the way, the U.S. has armed Israel with endless weapons, totalling $40 billion of our tax dollars announced since October 2023.¹

For over 78 years, the Palestinian people have remained steadfast in their struggle against Israel’s violent colonialism, refusing to be uprooted from their native land.² This current phase of genocide has been ongoing for three years. As Israel ramps up attacks on Gaza and threatens to completely destroy the West Bank, we rise in solidarity with the Palestinian people.

In the U.S., activists and organizers founded the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights (USCPR) in 2001, grounded in the vision of a free Palestine. Our North Star goal has been to end U.S. military funding to Israel and all forms of complicity in Israel’s genocidal violence, as we've led BDS campaigns and trained grassroots organizers. Over these past 25 years, you’ve carried this vision forward as you’ve protested, disrupted, and advocated with us.

Fight for a future where we’re all free, from Turtle Island to Sudan to Palestine. As Americans in the belly of the beast, it is our moral duty to stop the genocide machine fueled by our tax dollars. Find the most effective ways you can take action in this toolkit.
