Activists in New York City Mark Nabka Day With Protests

Michael Nigro

Pro-Palestine protesters rally and march to commemorate the 77th anniversary of Nakba Day in the Brooklyn borough of New York City. The Nakba, meaning 'catastrophe' in Arabic, is marked every year by Palestinians on May 15 to remember the expulsion of hundreds of thousands from their homes and land in 1948 after the founding of Israel.
