    Please, someone tell me how the fuck these protests get organized? I’ve been scouring IG for upcoming demonstrations in LA and nobody’s registering their actions on Shut It Down For Palestine. For months I’ve tried to get involved and it feels impossible for any full time worker to help take action for Palestine. Best case scenario is I find out about an event a few hours beforehand when I’m already in the office and it’s too late for me to be there.
