WASHINGTON, DC: On Friday, November 4, huge crowds of protesters gathered to call for a ceasefire in Washington, DC, as well as in other capital cities around the globe, as the Israel-Gaza conflict continues, as per CNN.
In an interview with CNN, Iman Abid-Thompson, director of advocacy at the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights said that the protests are “a testament of just how much more support has grown around the Palestinian solidarity movement and that people really want to see change come.”
Conservative political host Benny Johnson has shared several videos of the protests happening in Washington, DC, especially those outside the White House.
In the aforementioned report by CNN, it was stated that multiple organizers directly addressed President Joe Biden.
