SUMMARY:From Brooklyn to Palestine: Militarism, Colonialism, and the Navy Yard
DESCRIPTION:When: Sunday January 11, 12:30 PM\nWhere: via Zoom ( https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1978468520604?aff=oddtdtcreator )* & In-Person ( https://www.eventbrite.com/e/1978467995032?aff=oddtdtcreator ) at 269 4th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11215\n*You must RSVP above to receive the Zoom link.\nWhat does the ongoing genocide in Palestine have to do with Brooklyn?\nThis Sunday Platform examines the often-hidden connections between U.S. militarism abroad and its material footprint at home. Speakers from Demilitarize Brooklyn Navy Yard will explore how military-linked companies operating in the Navy Yard support the Israeli Defense Forces, and how those same companies apply surveillance, policing, and weapons technologies domestically.\nDrawing on the idea of the “colonialism boomerang,” the talk traces how violence tested on occupied populations returns to shape policing, repression, and control within the United States. This is a conversation about accountability, complicity, and the moral clarity required in a moment of profound global injustice.\n \nAbout the Speakers\nDemilitarize Brooklyn Navy Yard (DBNY) is a grassroots coalition working to expose and dismantle the military-industrial presence in the Brooklyn Navy Yard. DBNY organizes research, public education, and direct action to challenge weapons manufacturing, surveillance technologies, and militarized infrastructure embedded in New York City’s economy.\n
