"Here’s what we know so far about the events planned across the region:
Oct. 5
- Beginning at 4 p.m., advocates for# Gaza will rally in front of the #WhiteHouse to mark “one year of #genocide” and “one year of #resistance” in what the #PalestinianYouthMovement is calling an #InternationalDayOfAction. There are similar protests planned in other cities, including #LosAngeles, #Montreal, #Vancouver, #Indianapolis, #Houston and #NewYork.
Oct. 6
- At 7 p.m., Temple Rodef Shalom in McLean, Va., will have a religious service of remembrance.
Oct. 7
- The Students for Justice in #Palestine group at the University of Maryland is planning to host an #interfaith vigil and educational events throughout the day to mourn people killed in Gaza during the war with #Israel.
- Beginning at 11 a.m. and running through 9 p.m. on Lafayette Square, the Hostages Families Alliance plans a vigil and prayers for the hostages still in Gaza. The group estimated on a National Park Service permit application that 1,500 people will attend.
- Beginning at noon and running until 3 p.m. near the Washington Monument, the Philos Project, a Christian group, plans a rally and march to mourn the dead, remember the hostages and support Israel. Organizers estimated on a National Park Service permit application that 1,500 people will attend.
- From 6 to 8 p.m. at Meridian Hill Park, also known as #MalcolmXPark, the Jewish group #IfNotNow will hold a memorial to mourn all the people — #Israeli and #Palestinian — who have died in the conflict. Planners estimated on a National Park Service permit application that 1,000 people will attend.
- At 7 p.m. at the Anthem, the Jewish Federation of Greater Washington is hosting an “evening of remembrance, resilience, and hope for a brighter future.”
- At 8 p.m., Hillel at U-Md. is hosting a gathering to mark the anniversary of the Hamas attacks on Israel. Jewish student leaders are also discussing their plans for Oct. 7, including whether it’s possible to hold awareness events on campus, including a display to honor the hostages still in #Hamas captivity."

"#Prayer #vigils outside #family #planning #clinics are there to #deliberately #harass and #intimidate #workers and #anyone seeking #abortion #healthcare.
Anyone claiming they aren’t there to intimidate is wrong, otherwise they’d be holding these vigils in a #church somewhere."
