DNC Protesters Hold ‘Killer Kamala’ Banner as They March in Chicago
SUMMARY
Protesters at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago held a banner reading “Killer Kamala” as they marched through the streets on August 18, 2024. The demonstration, led by anti-Israel activists, was part of a larger protest against U.S. aid to Israel and called for the liberation of Palestine. Hatem Abudayyeh, spokesperson for the coalition, announced that nearly 270 organizations had joined the protest, expecting “tens of thousands” of participants. The march is scheduled to continue into the week, coinciding with Vice President Kamala Harris’s anticipated acceptance of her party’s nomination. During the protest, one speaker criticized the Democratic Party for failing to fulfill promises, questioning why voters should support them.
