Interfaith Pilgrimage for Palestine: Divest from War, Invest in Life
2026-05-09 08:00 - 16:00
Dear Beloved community,
We invite you to please join us and Interfaith4Palestine (I4P) on May 9, 2026 for this year’s Interfaith Pilgrimage for Palestine! This year our prayerful, public witness calls for an end to military cargo shipments from Oakland to Israel. As the drumbeat of war and war profiteering grows louder, we deepen our commitment to non-cooperation with harm and support the Oakland People’s Arms Embargo to proclaim: Divest from war. Invest in life.
This Mother’s Day we will honor the sacred roots of this day by lifting up the suffering of children in Palestine and everywhere violence prevails. We protest the devastation of war and call for the immediate cessation of policies and actions—abroad and at home—that fuel violence, displacement, and ethnic cleansing.
We are organizing this pilgrimage because the violence funded by U.S. tax dollars in Gaza is not separate from the violence our communities experience here — through systems of incarceration, family separation, displacement, and criminalization that target immigrants, Indigenous people, unsheltered neighbors, trans and BIPOC communities.
