Maria Hernandez Park was the location this past weekend for one of the latest protests in support of Palestine, as the Israeli-led war over in Gaza passed its 85th day. The quiet action on the weekend afternoon, right before the new year had been organized, by members of the groups Shut it down 4 Palestine and the People’s Forum NYC and was more of a chance to continue calls for a ceasefire and bring attention to various injustices brought upon the Palestinians by differing people and leaders over in Israel and the U.S. Like other pro-Palestine rallies in Brooklyn, they also sought to draw attention to another, later rally happening a day later on New Years Eve, over in Manhattan.
