SHUT IT DOWN! Mass mobilization for Palestine cancels the first day of the 2024 California State Legislature

SHUT IT DOWN!

For Palestine, hundreds of people took over the California State Capitol on January 3, 2024. The first day of the state’s legislature for the new year, or should we say, the attempted first day. The takeover forced the cancellation of the legislature’s session.

NO BUSINESS AS USUAL!

A coalition, organized in large part by Jewish folks saying #NotInOurName and #ShutItDown4Palestine brought together a determined and diverse mass of people to escalate the efforts to stop the attacks and genocide on Palestinians.

MAKE IT UNGOVERNABLE!

The takeover was a display of direct action. It is part of the wave of walkouts, strikes, blockades and street mobilizations. These actions vary in tactics – some peaceful, some more militant. This flexibility in approach must be supported.

Folks associated with Three Way Fight had the ability to network and join in with this takeover and to help shut it down!
