PRESSURE CAMPAIGN AGAINST THE LYRIC - SEE LINK IN BIO!

The Lyric Theatre is hosting the problematic singer Matisyahu on March 8th, despite his history of aggressive behavior and violent, inhumane beliefs.

Matisyahu has assaulted audience members, performed for extremist groups responsible for horrible acts of violence, and even sang to IOF soldiers in support of their brutal campaign that has killed at least 71,000 people since 2023.

Let's once again come together as a community to stand up against welcoming hateful supporters of mass murder to our city and creative spaces. Tag and message and and urge them to do the right thing and cancel the upcoming Matisyahu show.

Go to the link in our bio to read the open letter, submit your name to be added, and email The Lyric Theatre and Code-R Productions.

EMERGENCY ACTION — SHARE!
Independent organizers are protesting Kamala Harris's Birmingham stop on her book tour. YPB is supporting the action.

In office, Harris explicitly reaffirmed wholehearted support for the state of Israel as it carried out a genocide in Gaza and maintained a decades-old military occupation and system of ethnic apartheid. She ignored nationwide calls to end all aid to the Zionist state and took part in an administration that brutalized students who led antiwar and anti-genocide encampments for divestment from Israel.

During her campaign, she refused to separate herself from Joe Biden or appeal to popular progressive policies like an arms embargo on Israel, despite it being one of the many major factors that the Democratic voter base cared about.

After losing the election, she stayed silent on Palestine during the Trump regime's continuation of the genocide, and now continues to shirk responsibility for the role her administration played in supporting it, instead blaming voters and anti-genocide protestors for her campaign's shortcomings. She's now taking the opportunity to promote her new book, centering herself and her career that contributed to taking countless lives, profiting while Americans across the country are subjected to Trump's fascist policies and Palestinians struggle to survive under brutal conditions that her administration paved the way for.

Genocidaires should NEVER be allowed a day of peace. Join fellow people of conscience in taking a stand and demanding accountability!

Meet on the corner of 3rd Avenue North & 18th Street North outside of the Alabama Theater this Friday October 17th at 6:00 PM!
