New York, NY – On May 15, over 500 New Yorkers rallied at the Nakba Day protest called by Within Our Lifetime.

Nakba Day commemorates the victims of the Palestinian Nakba in 1948, during which Israeli settler militias ethnically cleansed over 750,000 Palestinians from their homelands, depopulating 531 villages, and massacring over 15,000 Palestinians to establish the state of Israel.
