Vigil for Aaron Bushnell

"In memory of Aaron Bushnell, the anarchist who declared "I will not be complicit in genocide" and set himself on fire in front of the Israeli embassy, and to honor the 30,000+ Palestinian, Yemeni, and Lebanese killed by the military industrial complex with our tax dollars.

Bring candles and art."
