🚨PICKET LINE + NOISE DEMO🚨
BEZALEL OUT OF BROOKLYN
WEDNESDAY 11/12
TIME: 2:00-4:00 PM
LOCATION: DEKALB AVE. & HALL ST.
This morning, just 11 miles from the Israeli Bezalel Art campus in occupied Jerusalem, settler paramilitaries attacked another palestinian town in the Bedouin community of Ma’azi Jabaa, burning their tents and injuring 7 people. When Palestinians are ethnically cleansed from the area, the paramilitaries will move on to destroy the next town while zionist settlers will move in and make art. “israel” sends Bezalel out on press tours to american and european “liberal” universities to improve israel’s international image after the so called ceasefire, normalizing the genocide. NO ART CAN WASH CLEAN THE BLOOD FROM A GENOCIDAL APARTHEID MACHINE.
By collaborating with the Navy Yard and Bezalel, Pratt once again betrays the values of the community and continues their complicity. From holding graduate studio spaces and the upcoming art and design conference at the Brooklyn Navy Yard- the largest landlord of weapons manufactures in New York City housing Easy Aerial and Crye Precision- to hosting Bezalel and their speakers on campus, they are collaborating with institutions that actively deny the rights and existence of others.
Pratt is directly contributing to the cultural and military apparatus that perpetuates not only genocide abroad, but also fascism and the violent kidnappings of our neighbors here in NYC. Our message is clear: NO COLLABORATION WITH ARCHITECTS OF GENOCIDE AND WAR CRIMINALS!
Bring your comrades, noise makers, signs and RAGE!
🚨TAKE ACTION🚨
Sign the petition and join the picket to shut down Bezalel at Pratt!
