Jewish Voice for Peace Blocks NYSE Opening, Chaining Entrance to Demand U.S. Stop Arming Israel
Oct 14, 2024, 02:41 PM
Over 500 Jewish-led protesters and allies, organized by Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP), gathered in Lower Manhattan to shut down the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in protest against Israel's military actions in Gaza. Demonstrators chained themselves to the NYSE entrance, referring to it as the 'global epicenter of capital,' and displayed banners with slogans such as 'Gaza bombed, Wall Street booms' and 'Fund healthcare, housing, FEMA, not genocide.' Chants of 'Free Palestine' echoed as they called for an immediate arms embargo on Israel and an end to U.S. war profiteering by companies like Raytheon and Lockheed Martin. The NYPD cracked down on the protest, arresting dozens as the disruption halted the opening of the stock exchange.
