Keweenaw Friends of Palestine Plan Candlelight Vigil Tomorrow at the Huron Street Waterfront Park

In recent weeks drivers on Tuesday afternoons have likely seen the Keweenaw Friends of Palestine showing support for Palestinian people caught between warring groups. Tomorrow evening the Keweenaw Friends of Palestine invited the community to meet members while joining the group for a Candlelight Vigil in honor of those lost in Israel’s ongoing siege of the Gaza Strip. Organizers hope to bring the community together to share in reflection on the loss of human life throughout the conflict, encouraging those who feel disenfranchised by the United State’s active role.  The Keweenaw Friends of Palestine Candlelight Vigil will begin at 9:30 pm tomorrow with the community meeting at Houghton Huron Street Waterfront Park. During the vigil writers, organizers, and members will feature poetry and comment on the conflict.
