“We brought 1,000 people from Detroit on 30 buses and 100 cars,” he told People’s World. “We are here to demand a ceasefire in the war on Gaza. We want this 70-year occupation of Palestine to end now. We want a free Palestinian State. The genocide must stop. Too many children, too many women and men have died.”
