Land Day

Every year on March 30, Palestinians observe Land Day, or Yom al-Ard, recalling the events of March 30, 1976, when six unarmed Palestinians were killed and more than 100 injured by Israeli forces during protests against Israel’s confiscation of Palestinian land.

Palestinians, both inside Israel and across the occupied territory, mark this day by holding protests and vigils and planting olive trees to reaffirm their connection to the land. The protests are often met with brutal use of force by Israel. 

Israel continues to steal land and build illegal settlements. From Turtle Island to Palestine, we demand LAND BACK. 

Meet at Staples lot on 8th Street, 2:30 PM
