LAND DAY 2026

Sunday, March 29, 2026. 3 PM.
Bryant Park NYPL Steps.
Manhattan, New York City.

“For the last 50 years, Palestinians have commemorated Land Day as a promise to remain in, struggle for, and return to our lands in Palestine. It is a day of unity and action in the fight for liberation from Zionist subjugation, and a promise to be unrelenting in our efforts to free every inch of our land.

This year, the U.S. and Israel continue to wage a war of annihilation against our people in Palestine and across the region. In Gaza, an ongoing genocide of siege and destruction continues, with the accelerated efforts to usurp Palestinian land and expel the residents who have nourished it for generations. In the West Bank, settler expansion and attacks are at an all time high, with more land grabs, expulsions, and arrest campaigns happening on the daily. In Lebanon and Iran, a war is being waged in the name of Zionism and U.S. imperialism as an extension of the genocide in Gaza, and as punishment for daring to resist Israeli terror in the region.

Our duty to stand with Palestine is as urgent as ever. Join us in the streets in New York City to assert our right to resist, to remain, and to return to our homelands, to live free and dignified.

Until liberation and return, see you in the streets,” said the New York City Chapter of the Palestinian Youth Movement on March 8, 2026.

AL QUDS DAY 2026

Friday, March 13, 2026. 3:30 PM.
Times Square (43 Street and Broadway).
Manhattan, New York City.

“The International Day of Al Quds takes place annually on the last Friday of Ramadan with marches and demonstrations held across the world. The objective of this day is to take a clear stance against worldwide oppression, specifically highlighting the Zionist settler colonial occupation of Palestine.

Less than a year after the establishment of the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979, Imam Khomeini, the leader of the Islamic Revolution, made a historical announcement appointing the last Friday of the Holy Month of Ramadan as Al Quds Day. During this declaration, Imam Khomeini called on Muslims and justice seekers around the world to join forces to proclaim support for the Palestinian cause. Upon this declaration, millions answer this call worldwide.”_Al Quds Committee New York

FREE LEQAA FREE THEM ALL!

Saturday, March 14, 2026. 12:00 PM.
Foley Square. Manhattan, New York City.

“Join us to demand the immediate release of Leqaa Kordia. March 14 marks one year since Leqaa Kordia was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (I.C.E.) and transferred to a detention facility in Texas. DHS/ICE targeted her because of an arrest for protesting against the genocide of her people.

Leqaa remains steadfast in her pursuit of Palestinian liberation and has spoken about the horrific conditions her and her fellow women detained have endured. She was recently hospitalized and will be spending her second Ramadan in detention. We demand her immediate release and the end of deportation!”_CUNY for Palestine

WED. MARCH 11, 2026. 11:00AM – 1:00PM.
BUILDING 77 (141 Flushing Ave)
Brooklyn, New York City.

“As the zionist entity and US empire bomb Iran, Lebanon and continue their campaign of terror against Palestine, ICE continues to deport, kill, and terrorize immigrants here in NYC and across the country. As the U.S. and israel enact this fascist violence domestically and abroad, they do so with Crye Precision gear made in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. In the imperial core, we MUST continue to resist and disrupt the imperialist war machine by targeting its supply chain.

Join us at Navy Yard Building 77 from 11:00-1:00 on WED. MARCH 11, where we’ll be aiming to have longer discussions with workers on their lunch breaks and connect with local community members.

VIGIL FOR AYATOLLAH ALI KHAMENEI AND ALL MARTYRS OF AMERIKAN IMPERIALISM

“FRIDAY, MARCH 6th, 2026.
WASH SQUARE PARK, NEAR THE ARCH
5:00 PM VIGIL
5:53/6:08PM IFTAR
6:30 PM SALAT

Join us for a community vigil honoring the martyrdom of the Supreme Leader of Iran, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, assassinated by U.S. government forces on March 1st, 2026.

Throughout his life, Ayatollah Khamenei defended the dignity of the Iranian people and stood firmly against z*0n1sm and the criminal Amerikan regime. The Ayatollah also frequently spoke to and materially supported the shared struggle of oppressed Black and brown people in the United States, in Gaza, in the Sahel, and around the world.

In 1985, Khamenei met with the pan-African leader of Burkina Faso, Thomas Sankara. He later voiced support for the Black Lives Matter movement after the martyrdom of Eric Garner. In 2017 he paused a speech to honor Malcolm X and recite Surah Fatihah for Malcolm’s soul. And in 2020, he connected the public execution of George Floyd to the global struggle against Amerikan imperialism, saying it reflected “the nature of the U.S. government.”

This vigil is a solemn reminder that Amerikan colonial violence is a singular evil. We honor all those who have been killed at the hands of Amerikan pigs: from Khamenei to George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Hind Rajab, Eric Garner and the more than 165 schoolgirls massacred by Amerikan bombs dropped on Iran just a few days ago (February 28, 2026).

We stand with Ayatollah Khamenei because he stood for us.

DERELL’S COURT DATE

March 25th, 2026. 9:30 AM.
Kings Supreme Court
360 Adams Street. Brooklyn, NY 11201.

“After holding Derell for over a full year without due process, the state claims it isn’t ready for trial on the 4th. But their delay isn’t only incompetence — it’s strategic demoralization and torture to extinguish Derell’s wilI to continue fighting. Derell has been steadfast in his refusal to be coerced into pleading guilty despite the inhumane conditions he endures every single day in Rikers.

His next listed court date is MARCH 25TH. On March 25th, we put the state, the pigs, and the MTA on trial for their genocidal oppression of the Black community! We say no more MTA checkpoints and no more police occupations of Black communities!

Kings Supreme Court (Part 4)

Thank you everyone so much for supporting Derell! Derell has been incredibly heartened by your letters of support and knowing that people are thinking of him and fighting for him.

“Join us to demand Columbia divest from the US-Israeli imperialist war machine. Columbia refuses to establish itself as a sanctuary campus, proving that they don’t care about protecting international students because the university’s money is made through imperial destruction. The same weapons, funded by Columbia and deployed by the Trump administration, are being used to destroy Iran, Gaza, Lebanon, Venezuela, and Cuba. MONEY FOR JOBS AND EDUCATION, NOT FOR BOMBS AND DEPORTATIONS.”_COLUMBIA SUNRISE MOVEMENT

COMMEMORATE DBNY’S GRASSROOTS VICTORY OF SHUTTING DOWN EASY AERIAL AND TAKE ACTION AGAINST CRYE PRECISION SUPPLIER OF GENOCIDE, DEPORTATIONS, AND THE IMPERIALIST WAR MACHINE.

PICKET & NOISE DEMO
WED, MARCH 4, 2026. 5:00 – 7:00PM.
BUILDING 77 (141 Flushing Ave).
Brooklyn, New York City.

“This Wednesday, as we honor our hard work and the people’s organized power that forced Easy Aerial out of our backyard, join DBNY to continue disrupting business as usual for the genocidal Brooklyn Navy Yard. While we commemorate our victory, we must also recognize that our fight is not over. The recent attack on Iran is yet another example of the bloodthirsty US-Israeli imperialism threatening the people of Palestine, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, and all oppressed peoples throughout the world. With shameless ICE, IOF, and US Military supplier Crye Precision continuing to operate on tax-subsidized land at BNY, now is not the time to rest. It’s the time to ESCALATE, to DISRUPT, and to KEEP FIGHTING. We now have proof that our militant, grassroots campaign is powerful enough to force out a genocidal drone factory. Let this serve as a reminder of the power we possess and as a reason to continue our fight.

We honor every single comrade who took action as part of the campaign and contributed to this victory. DBNY is ready to sustain our energy, keep organizing militantly, and immediately escalate pressure on Crye Precision. We will not stop or rest until CRYE PRECISION is SHUT DOWN. While politicians continue to spew their empty and hypocritical rhetoric, the people will continue to show up and FORCE ICE SUPPLIERS OUT OF NY.

From Gaza to Venezuela to Iran, from ICE to the US Military, we have an obligation to fight against imperialist war and fascism in all of its forms — and shut down its suppliers from the Navy Yard, the City of New York, and every corner of this stolen land.

“Come out to demand these bullshit charges be dropped!

Natalia, like many righteous people across the country chose to protest against ICE and is now being criminally charged. The ICE thugs kidnapping and murdering innocent people should be charged and convicted! If we are serious about building a mass movement that can seriously stand up to ICE, we have to fight against charges brought against protesters in the courtroom and the streets.

Two months since the KIDNAPPING of the PRESIDENT OF VENEZUELA, NICOLÁS MADURO, AND THE FIRST COMBATANT, CILIA FLORES.

Tuesday, March 3, 2026. 5:30 PM.
Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC).
80 29th St. Brooklyn, New York City.
R train to 25 St.

President Nicolás Maduro and first lady Cilia Flores were KIDNAPPED by the United States of America government, president Donald Trump and vice president JD Vance, on January 3, 2026.

Tuesday, March 3, 2026. will be two months since the KIDNAPPING of the PRESIDENT OF VENEZUELA, NICOLÁS MADURO, AND THE FIRST LADY, CILIA FLORES.

President Nicolás Maduro and first combatant Cilia Flores are being held HOSTAGE by the US government of Donald Trump and JD Vance at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, NYC.

Special call from musician and political activist Roger Waters.

More info on Workers World Party.

Donald Trump, JD Vance, the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency are holding around 200 migrants at the Metropolitan Detention Center, one of them is Venezuelan Rafael Andres Rubio Bohorquez, a NYC Council staffer, who was arrested by ICE on January 12, 2026.

I don’t know, but apparently, Rafael Rubio is against president Nicolás Maduro. The president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, who Rubio used to attack, is now being held HOSTAGE at the same Metropolitan Detention Center as Rafael Rubio, Donald Trump KIDNAPPED Maduro on January 3, 2026 and Donald Trump arrested Rubio on January 12, 2026. The DHS’s press release called the 45-year-old Venezuelan native, Rafael Rubio, “illegally employed” and a “criminal.” Does Rafael Rubio support zionists Donald Trump, María Corina Machado, Edmundo González Urrutia and Benjamin Netanyahu? President Nicolás Maduro and first combatant Cilia Flores support Palestine.

ICE agents have been arresting permanent residents, parents, children, and individuals in the process of legalizing their status, etc.

In 2002, democrats Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Chuck Schumer, and other democrat and republican politicians in the U.S. Congress created ICE. ICE started working in March 2003. We have ICE thanks to both the Democratic Party and Republican Party. Click here to see the votes of senators. Click here to see the votes of the representatives in the House of Representatives.

Democrat and republican politicians give billions of dollars to ICE. Republicans and democrats use ICE to arrest, expel, and deport migrants. The “ICE TERRORISM” is thanks to republicans and democrats. Abolish ICE and abolish the Republican Party and the Democratic Party.

The blockade against Cuba

The terrorist blockade against Cuba for more than 64 years was started by the imperialist, zionist, pro-ICE Democratic Party. Former US president, democrat John F. Kennedy started the criminal, genocide blockade against Cuba on February 3,1962. John F. Kennedy and Donald Trump are two faces of the same terrorist yankee empire.

The Nuestra América Flotilla.

“We are sailing to Cuba, bringing critical humanitarian aid for its people,” said Progressive International on February 12, 2026.

“Together, we can break the siege, save lives, and stand up for the cause of Cuban self-determination,” Progressive International added.

Our Flotilla is now a Convoy

“The Trump administration is strangling the island, cutting off fuel, flights, and critical supplies for survival.

“There’s an embargo. There’s no oil. There’s no money. There’s no anything,” Trump bragged aboard Air Force One on 16 February.

The consequences of the US siege are lethal, for newborns and parents, for the elderly and the sick.

“Intensive care units and emergency rooms are compromised, as are the production, delivery, and storage of medicines,” warned the UN High Commission for Human Rights.

That is why we are preparing the Nuestra América Convoy to Cuba, mobilizing by air, land, and sea in solidarity with the Cuban people.

Since launch, we have been overwhelmed by support from communities across the world committed to breaking the criminal US blockade.

Now, we are welcoming them to this historic mission, growing the coalition from a flotilla into a global convoy that will converge in Havana on 21 March 2026.

There is no time to waste, as the Trump administration ramps up its assault on the island and its campaign to isolate its people.

So join us in Havana, and support our efforts to secure critical aid for homes, hospitals, schools, and families in need.

Together, we can break the siege, save lives, and stand up for the cause of Cuban self-determination,” says Progressive International on their website nuestraamericaconvoy.org.
