From the U.S., there are no sidelines. We will uproot complicity where we are: We demand that the U.S. government immediately take steps to withdraw military funding to [the neocolony] and to hold the [neocolonial] government accountable for its gross violations of human rights and war crimes against Palestinians. We commit to escalating our campaigns for boycott, divestment and sanctions to end the billions pouring into the [neocolonial] war machine from corporations and private foundations.

Inevitably, oppressed people everywhere will seek — and gain — their freedom. We all deserve liberation, safety and equality. The only way to get there is by uprooting the sources of the violence, beginning with our own government’s complicity.
