Peaceful protest is a right, not a crime.
When Israeli President Isaac Herzog visited Sydney, thousands turned out to oppose genocide and stand for peace.
Instead, protesters were met with excessive force and aggressive policing.
That’s why the Greens are calling for an independent review into the level of force and tactics used by NSW Police at the February 9 protest in Sydney.
When governments try to silence peaceful protest, we must stand up, not back down.
We are part of the world’s biggest movement for peace, and our message is clear: genocide is the crime, not peaceful protest.
Add your name today to call for an independent review and hold police accountable.
