Thank you to all the organizers of the Emergency Summit for Gaza. The event was the first time I have felt any optimism since October 7.
To my mind, the most important thing about the event was the bringing together of a diverse group of people and organizations. As a child of the 1960s, I saw how civil rights and antiwar issues shifted from a few voices to a very mainstream movement.
I am eager to know what the organized follow up will be. Speakers raised several ideas that could be great ways to move forward and to mobilize.
Thanks so much for a truly excellent effort.
