In Massachusetts, protesters are holding a 24-hour vigil for Gaza in Harvard Square, reading the names of Palestinians killed in Israel’s assault on the Gaza Strip.

Protester: “Rasha Mohammed Arafat Al-Minawi, Baraa Ramzi Imad Shahada, Dana Itimad Yousef Dalloul, Ghaidaa Iyad Subhi Al-Haj Salem.”

Protesters held banners that said, “They all have names.” Officials in Gaza say Israel’s assault and starvation campaign has killed more than 61,700 Palestinians.

In Indianapolis, protesters gathered at the Indy 500 parade Saturday demanding the U.S. pressure Israel to stop starving Gaza. Malkah Bird is with Jewish Voice for Peace, which helped organize the demonstration.

Malkah Bird: “We need to break this siege. We need food, medicine and clean water going into Gaza immediately. So, anything you can do, any people you have, any congregation, any collection of people that you have who can be moved into action, we are obligated to move them into action.”
