DESCRIPTION

Dozens of Brooklyn voters gathered at Fort Greene's Fowler Square on Fulton Street. While collecting signatures on petitions, others handed out flyers to passersby as people gathered to begin a protest march.

 Anger has been boiling up in the Congressional district represented by Hakeem Jeffries, the powerful Democratic Leader in the House. 

Jeffries has strongly supported Israel in its war of slaughter and starvation siege it has been caryying against the people of Gaza. 

The assembled group marched from Fowler Square, several blocks to Jeffries' office in the state office building on Hanson Place where they gathered, chanted and listened to various speakers who demanded that the Ccongressperson drop his support of Israel's genocide and represent his voters who overwhelmingly want and end to the slaughter, a cease fire and end to Israel's starvation siege. 

Pledging to continue their campaign, shots of "Vote him out" rang through the street as the protest ended. 

The protest was NY8 Neighbors for a Gaza Ceasefire and was co-sponsored by Brooklyn For Peace, Peace Action of NYS, World Can't Wait and NIAC (National Iranian American Council).
