« Save Renee’s House: Stop the Bank of America Foreclosure! | They’re Back! AIPAC Confab Returns to D.C. » |
from: William Hughes
On Monday, March 22, 2010, activists from Code Pink, a peace and justice group, staged a demonstration in front of the Washington, D.C. Convention Center. Their purpose: Protesting AIPAC!
One of the speakers at the event was Mai Abdul-Rahman. She is with the Washington Interfaith Alliance for Middle East Peace (WIAMEP). She urged a “boycott, divestment and sanctions” against Israel. Code Pink’s Medea Benjamin served as the moderator for the rally.
