ENOUGH IS ENOUGH – Rally for Palestine and Lebanon

Philly for Palestine, along with Philly Palestinian Americans, is organizing a rally titled “ENOUGH IS ENOUGH” to express support for Palestine and Lebanon. The rally is scheduled for October 27, 2024, at 2:00 PM at Cottman Ave & Bustleton Ave in Philadelphia. The organizers have requested participants to bring flags, banners, noisemakers, and bullhorns to amplify their message.

While not a campus-based event, this rally could see student and faculty involvement due to its promotional support from Huda Fakhreddine, known for her past campus influence. The rhetoric in such rallies has previously escalated, raising concerns about public safety and the potential impact on Philadelphia’s student community.
