There are no Palestinians at the DNC!
There sure are a lot of JEWS!
A sit-in that began on Wednesday evening in protest of the Democratic convention’s denial of speaking slot for a Palestinian American on the main stage continued on Thursday.
Uncommitted, a national movement that began in Michigan, won 30 delegates to the convention and has tried to use the party process to pressure Joe Biden and Kamala Harris to broker an end to the war in Gaza. The sit-in has been taking place outside the United Center, where Harris will speak this evening, is the latest attempt to get the Democratic party to allow greater prominence for the anti-war movement at this week’s convention in Chicago. Organizers were expected to remain in place until or unless the party changes course.
Abbas Alawieh, a leader of the Uncommitted National Movement and a Michigan delegate, began the impromptu sit-in after the DNC told the group it would not get a speaker.
“We didn’t come here to do a sit-in, we’re just sitting here waiting for a call,” Alawieh said.
Some stayed at the sit-in overnight, sleeping on the pavement outside the United Center. They encouraged supporters to stop by the action.
As the broader party faithful streamed out of the arena cheering and smiling last night, they encountered the sit-in outside the United Center. Some in the movement held banners saying “not another bomb” and “arms embargo now” facing the arena exits.

Layla Elabed, a leader of the Uncommitted National Movement, said having a speaker on the main stage was the “bare minimum”, and far below the policy change uncommitted and anti-war voters want to see from Harris on Gaza.
“This has been an embarrassment for those of us who had faith in the Democratic party that we still had voices here,” Elabed said.
Muslim Women for Harris said in a statement that the group could not continue in good conscience given the denial of a Palestinian voice. “The family of the Israeli hostage that was on the stage tonight has shown more empathy towards Palestinian Americans and Palestinians than our candidate or the DNC has.”
Yeah, well. I guess Moslems won’t vote for Harris.
We’ll see if that makes a difference.
(It won’t.)
