Join this very special in-person workers' circle where we will be having comrades from Workers for a Free Palestine in the UK zooming in for live discussion about their experiences organizing arms and logistics workers for Palestine! We have so much to learn from our UK comrades. Get ready to be inspired to mobilize!

Workers have the power to enact an arms embargo for Palestine.

There are weapons, military equipment, and dangerous explosives being exported to Israel out of JFK airport and Port Elizabeth in New Jersey. These materials are directly being used to execute the Palestinian genocide, and we need to tell the Port Authority of NY/ NJ that its facilitation of these exports is unacceptable.

Our in-person workers' circle events are focused on digging deeper on strategy and solutions for a city-wide labor movement for an Arms Embargo. We'll be mapping out this trajectory together, and we will finish with concrete action items.

The Labor for an Arms Embargo campaign, locally called Break the Chain, is hosting a labor organizer training series for members of unions in the NY/ NJ area interested in organizing their workplace for Palestine.

Over the course of these trainings, workers will be guided through the process of building their organizing committee, having organizing conversations, and eventually passing anti-war resolutions in their unions. Join us to learn more!

This is an in-person workers' circle being facilitated between trainings, but serves as a great opportunity to meet more union members organizing for Palestine.
