As always, the FlagSSS Day Collective stands against militarism. We also stand FOR things, like creativity, thriving for all beings near and far, and having a damn good time. But at this moment, we wish to explicitly denounce, with grief and rage in our hearts, the genocide of the Palestinian people by the state of Israel with unfathomable support (via our tax dollars) from the US government (including from the State of New York). Our hearts are heavy for the loss of lives lost in Israel, Gaza, and the West Bank. Apartheid regimes put all lives (unequally as it is) at risk for harm. We long for and demand a decolonized and demilitarized world.
