🇵🇸 Health workers rally in NYC in solidarity with Palestine

Hundreds of health workers and demonstrators gathered outside of New York City Hall in solidarity with Palestinian health workers.

“We are particularly horrified by the targeted attacks on healthcare facilities and the cutting off of essential supplies like food, water and fuel to all of Gaza. The Ministry of Health in Gaza declared the complete collapse of the health system in hospitals in the Gaza Strip. Their hospitals are being bombed or are shuddering from lack of supplies and fuel,” said Allison, a member of NYC Healthcare Workers for Palestine and Left Voice.

🇵🇸 The people of the world declare: “Palestine will be free!”

Israel has killed over 10,000 Palestinians in 30 days of its relentless, genocidal bombardment of besieged Gaza.

While Israel continues to be shielded by its imperialist patrons, as resolution after resolution fails in the UN Security Council, the millions-strong, historic wave of mobilizations that have taken place globally in the past month have sent a clear message— the ruling elite do not speak for the people, and the people stand with Palestine.

#PeoplesHistory | On November 7, 1917 (October according to the old Russian calendar), Bolsheviks, under the leadership of Vladimir Lenin, overturned the interim provisional government and replaced it with a government by the people, local councils elected by bodies of workers and peasants.

Through sheer collective human efforts and the manifestation of a general will for progress, the Soviet Union rapidly progressed as a world superpower with excellent achievements in enhancing working class rights, women’s rights, human development, military power, science and technology, including space technology. The October Revolution influenced liberation struggles all around the third world, and today, it continues to guide us in our fight for a better world free of oppression and exploitation.
