“He who passively accepts evil is as much involved in it as he who helps to perpetrate it.”

—Martin Luther King Jr.

We, the citizens of the world, bring our people together above our nations, our ideologies and our differences for the common good of humanity. The acts of Genocide upon the people of Gaza by Israel has brought the world before the stage of history and we cry out for Justice. The International Court of Justice has declared Israel must end their acts of Genocide upon the people of Gaza. Have they? The United States has played a complicit role thus far in allowing such an atrocity to happen which we swore to the world “Never Again.” We gather together not only to declare the moral courage of our people but to assert the universal thread that connects us all, the love of ALL mankind. Humanity was born for that which is better!

Uniting the interfaith community and the historic Detroit Civil Rights tradition is the path to awaken the moral fiber in the United States. By bringing together our communities, Muslims, Christians, Jews and others, to discuss how to achieve true Peace in Gaza and how to organize ourselves to implement this in the United States and abroad.
