Global actions mark Palestine’s Land Day

Direct actions, rallies and protests took place across Palestine and in numerous cities across the world on March 30, 2011, to commemorate the 35th annual Land Day, an important day of remembrance for six Palestinians with Israeli citizenship gunned down by Israeli forces in 1976 during a general strike in protest of expanded land confiscation inside the state. Land Day commemorative events took place in several areas of Manhattan and Brooklyn, where Adalah-NY and other solidarity activists staged protests in support of the boycott of Israeli products.
