   John,
   As Gaza becomes hell on Earth, people protesting the genocide have been
   snatched off the streets, locked up, and even branded terrorists. 
   Over 100 pro-Palestine activists in the UK have just been arrested for
   peacefully protesting Israel’s war crimes, while Trump tries to deport
   students who dare to speak out against the genocide.
   It’s a clear attempt to criminalise dissent and silence solidarity with
   Palestine. But we can help shield brave activists and students everywhere
   from this terrifying global crackdown.
   Together, we could create an emergency people-powered legal fund for
   anyone who is targeted for speaking out against atrocities in Gaza, while
   continuing to fight against these policies – and show every activist
   risking everything that we won't let them face this alone.
   Right now, Palestinians need every single one of our voices loudly
   demanding an end to the genocide. Will you chip in to defend activists
   risking their freedom and fuel all our work to stop the horrors in Gaza?

   Israel’s war crimes keep piling up. The merciless killings of starving
   Palestinians desperately seeking food has become an almost daily
   occurrence and the world is watching in real-time as babies are starved to
   death.
   But instead of Israel’s government facing consequences, it’s the people
   who dare to oppose these atrocities who are being made to pay a heavy
   price. In both the UK and France, Palestine solidarity groups are on the
   verge of being banned altogether. 
   This upside-down justice is terrifying. But with a global community like
   ours ready to unite with activists around the world, we know that we can
   keep the fight for peace in Gaza going strong. 
   We CANNOT let them silence us with fear. 
   That’s why we’re urgently launching a legal defense fund to support
   activists facing retaliation, from the US to Europe, as well as powerful
   campaigns that expose and challenge the governments and corporations
   enabling Israel’s assault on Gaza.
   Now is the time to defend the right to protest, and the right to speak out
   against crimes against humanity. Together we can show the world that when
   you speak out against injustice, you’re not alone. But we can't do it
   without your help.
   Can you chip in whatever you can to power this legal fund and fuel our
   global fight for justice?
