Israel launched dozens of airstrikes on Tuesday, killing over 400 Palestinians — half whom were women and children. In doing so, they shattered the tenuous ceasefire in Gaza, one they have routinely broken since signing on January 18.
For the last two weeks, Israel has completely blockaded Gaza, using starvation as a weapon of war as it continued to kill Palestinians with impunity. And now, with the Trump administration’s greenlight, Israel has resumed its genocidal assault on Gaza.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration is waging an all-out war against our communities and our movements for justice. These attacks have left many of us feeling demoralized and overwhelmed. That is intentional: Fascists thrive when we are isolated, too terrified or hopeless to resist...

JVP runs campaigns in over a dozen cities to demand divestment from Israel bonds, expose corporations profiting off the genocide, and end tax breaks for Israeli war crimes.
If you are active in a JVP chapter:
1. Escalate (or launch) a campaign to divest your city, state, campus or institution from the Israeli government’s occupation and genocide.
2. Join the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement against Israel and genocide profiteering — including starting a boycott of Chevron.
Break the Bonds
Boycott Chevron
What weve won: No pride in genocide.

This week, student activist Mahmoud Khalil broke his silence, dictating a letter from the ICE detention facility in Louisiana where he is being held.
"Who has the right to have rights? It is certainly not the humans crowded into the cells here. It isn’t the Senegalese man I met who has been deprived of his liberty for a year, his legal situation in limbo and his family an ocean away. It isn’t the 21-year-old detainee I met, who stepped foot in this country at age nine, only to be deported without so much as a hearing."
