The Derry Irish Palestine Solidarity Campaign (DIPSC) will take to the streets again to call for an immediate end to the Israeli war on Gaza.
The march on Saturday, January 13, will take the historic civil rights route of 1968, leaving the train station at 12pm and finishing at the Guildhall.
This will be part of an international day of action for Palestine. Similar events will be happening all over the world.
Spokesperson Catherine Hutton has outlined the aims of the Derry IPSC.
“We stand with people all over the world in demanding an immediate and unconditional ceasefire in Gaza.
“We call for legal proceedings to begin at once against the Netanyahu government for their genocidal actions.
“The IPSC fully supports the South African led initiative to hold Israel account at the International Criminal Court.
“We urge the Irish government to back South Africa and take a stand for humanity.
“The complicity of the US administration, led by President Joe Biden, in the Gaza genocide should never be ignored or forgotten.
“We are actively campaigning for all our politicians to boycott the White House this St. Patrick’s Day.
“The people of Derry have shown incredible solidarity with Palestine.
“We call on them to come out in their thousands to support the march.
“We are asking for people to bring a doll or a white pillow and pillowcase to showcase and represent the 1000’s of children who have lost their lives.
“We welcome attendance from all individuals and groups across the city and beyond.
“We would also like to thank the organisations and groups who have sponsored and endorsed the march.
“Together, we can send a powerful message of solidarity to the Palestinian people and a clear message of resistance to the Israeli oppressors.
“In our thousands, in our millions – We are all Palestinians.”
