Schedule of protests has been reaffirmed. Protests will be weekly, from 6:30 to 8:30 and will be held at the front entrance of the Kimmel Center. What will change is the day of the week. To find out what the day will be, I’ll post it to cjallies
Someone expressed the concern that the protests are meant to discourage people from attending Philadelphia Orchestra concerts. As one of our members has said, no, we are not asking that loyal followers of the orchestra stop attending concerts. What the protests are trying to convey is to encourage supporters of the orchestra to tell the orchestra that playing in Israel is morally wrong.
A short time ago, we had a forum on the whole question of BDS and what the movement is trying to communicate to people. A summary of the forum is posted here.
