Tampa:

Solidarity with Rasmea Odeh and Palestine

Wednesday, November 13, 5:00 – 6:30 pm
Fowler Ave & N 56th St
Temple Terrace, FL 33617

Come out Nov. 13th at 5pm to stand in solidarity against the repression of Palestinian activist Rasmea Odeh, who is being arrested on trumped up immigration charges, as part of a wider attack on anti war and international solidarity activists.

Rasmea goes to court on Wednesday, November 13th. SDS unites with the international call for protests this day, and ask that students and youth join protests or hold one of your own on campus or in your communities.

The fight to defend activists facing political repression is ultimately the fight to protect us all from political repression.
