BAN GENOCIDAL ISRAEL FROM 2024 PARIS OLYMPICS!
📍Olympic Gymnastic Trials @ Target Center, 600 N 1st Ave, Minneapolis, MN 55403
🗓️Friday June 28 at 6:30PM
This summer, the Olympic trials for gymnastics are being held at the Target Center in downtown Minneapolis.
Some of Palestine’s finest athletes have been murdered or permanently disfigured by the Israeli state in this latest phase of it’s genocide against Palestinians, leaving them unable to participate in the competitions and events that they love and have worked their entire lives toward acheiving greatness in. Yet, the International Olympic Committee sees fit to continue to let Israel participate in the most prestigious sporting event in the world, the summer Olympics. The IOC banned apartheid South Africa from the Olympic Games from 1964-1992, and should do the same now with apartheid Israel.
The Minnesota Anti-War Committee says No Olympics As Usual while Israel is conducting a genocide and maintaining an apartheid state! Join us as we protest the IOC’s refusal to hold Israel accountable for it’s crimes against humanity!
We’ll be holding a noise demo and rally outside of the Target Center on Friday June 28 at 6:30PM. Bring an instrument, bring your voice, and bring your flags as we demand justice for Palestine on the largest stage in world sports!
