Free Speech TV joins a chorus of faith-based, interfaith, and secular movement leaders in echoing the urgent call for an immediate cease-fire, de-escalation, diplomacy, and humanitarian support for those whose need grows more desperate by the hour.
IfNotNow, a movement of American Jews for equality, justice, and a thriving future for all, is mobilizing their community to demand a ceasefire, noting that “Judaism teaches us that to save a life is to save the world.”
RootsAction, a progressive voice to stop funding endless wars, is galvanizing public pressure for de-escalation and diplomacy.
MPower Change, a group of diverse U.S. Muslims and allies fighting for a future free from Islamophobia and white supremacy, is calling for a humanitarian corridor for aid for the two million people trapped in Gaza, half of which are children.
Bishop William Barber of the Poor People’s Campaign reminds us that “while the road to a just peace may be long and difficult… We must meet one another in our shared grief and find another way.”
