Editor’s Note: We can not move forward as a “people’s movement” or “popular front” without the inclusion of the most oppressed people by the United States, the Palestinian people. Coalitions exclusive of the Palestian people and the organizations supporting them in their struggle against genocide can not lead any movement challening the continuing genocide – started under Biden Harris and likely to continue under Trump. The following letter has been sent by this editor to the organizers of this event on November 8, we will update with any information or response we might receive. Editor, FightBackBetter.com

Subject: Re: Is Palestine Part of Hudson County “Peoples Rally” ?
Date: Nov 8, 2024 6:33 PM
This looks like an interesting rally but why is there no mention of the Palestine issue?
It would seem that is still a front and center issue be it Kamala or Trump – it now needs to be raised with Trump.
I do not see any of the dozens of pro-Palestine groups included in the organization icons on the flier. THAT is very concerning.
I would suggest that a “peoples rally” must include the Palestinian people and the important movement in support or else it is not truly all of the people and not unified.
Can this be reconstituted as an event that includes Palestine?
Please advise,
