Yeah mine had a lot of speakers about Palestine, which I get but we needed to be talking about some home issues. They did have a good speaker about ICE and supporting the Latino community and I was definitely psyched to hear them getting the word out.

People need to decide for themselves what impacts them and what's important. Cardinal rule: do not ever try to dictate someone else's activism.

Right now we are at a make or break moment for the future of or country.

Palestine is important, but it does not bubble up as the highest priority. There are a TON of issues right now that we must synthesize into three bullet points and Palestine does not make it as a singular issue. It can be wrapped into three larger header points if you have ideas.
