"I think the tide is turning, and I’m glad that people are changing their mind, but I do think if you have just realized what is happening in Gaza and are naming it for what it is now, you’re obligated to come out into the streets and be really loud in naming that this is a genocide, that this is forced intentional starvation, and doing everything you can to make sure that it stops."
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Morriah Kaplan, Interim Executive Director at IfNotNow:
"As Jews, and for many of us as Americans, whose government is funding and enabling these atrocities, we have to choose whether we want to be responsible for a genocide and ethnic cleansing being carried out with our taxpayer dollars and in our name."
4. Mid of protesters holding signs reading: "Jews against genocide," "Stop starving Gaza," "Stop starvation"
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Morriah Kaplan, Interim Executive Director at IfNotNow:
"Jews can never know true safety as long as Palestinians remain in danger. The only true safety is shared safety. The only durable freedom is freedom for all. And we must have the courage, the integrity, and the love necessary to chart a new direction for our people. When I say, Jews say, you say, no more. Jews say, no more. Jews say, no more."

7. SOUNDBITE (English) Brad Lander, New York City Comptroller:
"Jews say no more to mass starvation. Jews say, no more! Jews say no more to ethnic cleansing. Jews say, no more! Jews say no more to destruction of Gaza. Jews say, no more! Jews say no more to occupation."

STORYLINE:
Several demonstrators were arrested Monday in New York as protesters took to the streets demanding an end to what they describe as the starvation of civilians in Gaza.

The protest drew a large crowd who spoke, chanted, and sang. Later, demonstrators blocked parts of the street near Trump International Hotel and Tower before NYPD officers began issuing warnings and making arrests.

Morriah Kaplan, Interim Executive Director of IfNotNow, told the crowd, "The only true safety is shared safety. The only durable freedom is freedom for all. And we must have the courage, the integrity, and the love necessary to chart a new direction for our people.”

Officers detained protesters and loaded them into NYPD vans. Despite the arrests, many continued chanting.
