Another “All Out For Palestine Peace Rally” will be held this upcoming weekend at Centennial Park in Nashville.
The Instagram account @tn4palestine (Tennesseans For Palestine) announced the rally in a post-Tuesday night, urging those planning on attending the demonstration to bring banners, signs, flags, posters, and wear keffiyehs.
The rally is scheduled to take place from 1:00-3:00 p.m. on Saturday.
“From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” the account captioned the post.
Saturday’s upcoming rally will mark the sixth straight weekend of pro-Palestine demonstrations in downtown Nashville amid the terrorist group Hamas’ October 7 attack on Israel that left around 1,200 people dead.
The last few rallies in Nashville have drawn crowds of more than 1,000 protesters.
During the rallies, protesters have lined the streets of Nashville and chanted slogans, including:
- “Hey, hey; ho, ho; this occupation’s got to go”;
- “Not another nickel, not another dime; no more money for Israel’s crimes”;
- “Joe Biden you will see – Palestine will be free; Netanyahu you will see – Palestine will be free”;
- “Free, free Palestine”;
- “Ceasefire now”; and
- “1234, occupation no more; 5678 Israel is a terror state.”
Two pro-Israel rallies have also unfolded in Music City since Hamas’ terrorist attack on Israel with the most recent demonstration taking place on November 12, as previously reported by The Tennessee Star.
Sunday’s pro-Israel rally featured many women carrying empty baby carriages and pushing empty strollers, symbolizing the Israeli children still being held hostage by Hamas. Protesters also held signs and displayed a large banner showing information about children kidnapped by the terrorist group.
The rally drew a crowd of approximately 300-500 people, many of whom were carrying red balloons and wearing shirts with the hashtag “#BringThemHomeNow.”
Hamas is estimated to be currently holding around 240 hostages, according to Axios.
