“On the eve of Kamala Harris’ speech in D.C. on 10/29, a small crew blanketed the security barriers, metro stops, parking meters, utility boxes, and sidewalks in the general vicinity with Free Palestine messaging. With her speech expected to bring in over 52,000 people, we wanted to send a message that we would not be voting for genocide and that Harris will continue the genocidal practices of Biden, if not be even worse. At every turn, Harris has doubled down on her refusal to support an arms embargo and reiterated her support for genocide. We ensured that attendees at her rally were faced with the stark reality of who they’re supporting.
In classic D.C. fashion, the security presence around the site of her speech was intense. In order to avoid this, we intentionally targeted the areas that people would most likely be using as they commuted to her speech from within the city or from out of town, knowing that there would be only one entrance into the event and that attendees would have to walk from metro stations or parking garages to that spot. Additionally, the large security barriers used for events like this typically have a bar that is the perfect size for a quick “Free Gaza”. We want to encourage folks to be creative with their actions and to use the infrastructure around high security events to your advantage!
Enjoy this small sampling of photos and remember: No votes for genocide!”
