Shut It Down On New Years Eve
The Instagram post that organizers used to promote the event said: "Shut it Down! On New Year’s Eve! We want to see a free 🇵🇸 [Palestine] now, and going forward into 2024!..."
“Free Palestine” is a chant that has been described as a "battle cry for the death of Jews.” In May 2025, two Israeli diplomats in Washington, D.C., were murdered by a gunman shouting “Free Palestine!” In June 2025, one pro-Israel activist was killed and over 25 were injured in Boulder, Colorado, when a man yelling “Free Palestine” firebombed them.
