Fighting Pinkwashing as Part of Your Activism
Posted by Andy1917
Content: As part of our solidarity programming with the JVP Chicago Hunger Strikers, we are hosting TWO teach-ins in Federal Plaza. First, from 4-5pm, @salon.kawakib will present a teach-in on Fighting Pinkwashing as Part of Your Activism. Pinkwashing is the weaponization of queerness & LGBTQ rights by Zionism to justify occupation, war crimes, and genocide. This teach-in will explore how Palestinian liberation and LGBTQ liberation are intertwined. Second, from 5-6pm, @illinoisdivest will present a teach-in on divesting $95 million of Illinois State Treasury Funds from Israel Bonds and investing them in our communities. Join us tomorrow in Federal Plaza for both of these important learning sessions! #LetGazaLive #StopStarvingGaza #StopArmingIsrael
Date/Time: July 3, 2025, 3 p.m.
Location: Federal Plaza, corner of Adams & Dearborn Streets, Chicago
