On October 12, 2023, PPC organized a pro-Hamas march where protesters chanted in support of terrorism and called for Israel’s destruction. As the crowd marched, they chanted: “From the River to the Sea, Palestine will be free!...Resistance is justified when people are occupied!” The marchers later chanted: “Intifada, intifada! Long live the intifada!” They also repeatedly shouted: “There is only one solution! Intifada, revolution!”
Jordan Vaughan, an organizer with PPC, addressed the crowd: “Long live the resistance! And land back by any means necessary!” The crowd cheered in support. The crowd again cheered when Nada Abuasi, another PPC organizer, said that over “the last few days the people of Gaza have broken out and reminded us of our right to resist!” She later promoted hatred of America and then stated: “We will not stand down…until Palestine is free from the River to the Sea!” The crowd cheered again.
