Light a candle to brighten Bethlehem's
Christmas in the shadow of Israel's aparthied.
On November 29 we will celebrate the International Day in Solidarity with the Palestinian People by raising a candle in Union Square and asking Christmas shoppers to remember Bethlehem and the star of Christmas by divesting from Israel. The star's brightness will not return to Bethlehem as long as the apartheid wall is casting aits racist shadow on Palestine's children. Our candles will shine over Union Square and call for a return of justice to the land of Palestine.
Download a flyer for the vigil (pdf) - and a card to encourage divestment (Word document).
