A group of grandmothers and older women who were wondering how they could show their support for the children in Gaza got together last Friday and held a one hour “stand” at a busy intersection. The experience was empowering; we were heartened by the number of passing cars honking and showing their support of our efforts. Because we thought that more women and grandmothers might be interested in joining an action like this one, some members from Broad View United Church as well as KAIROS Victoria decided to organize 4 more of these solidarity witness actions. 

All signs will be provided.

All you have to do is come as you are. If you happen to have a keffiyeh, do wear it, but it’s not necessary.
