Abstract

It was clear that something was different when Jewish Voice for Peace and their allies shut
down Grand Central Station in New York City at the end of October 2024. Hundreds of people,
mainly Jews, were arrested as they demanded a ceasefire in Gaza and raised the slogan ‘Not in
Our Name’. Coming less than a month into the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) brutal assault on
the Palestinian people, this action was one indication of a radical shift in terms of Jews
organiing explicitly for Palestine, of identifying as either non-Zionist or anti-Zionist, and of
taking direct action in disgust with how they are being used to justify US support for the Israeli
state, and Israel's existence as an ethno-state.
