Hundreds of protesters gathered in the streets of Hollywood before the Oscars on Sunday.
The streets of Hollywood were flooded with protesters on Sunday as celebrities arrived for the Academy Awards.
Hundreds of people gathered near the Dolby Theatre to denounce what organizers called Hollywood’s “active support of U.S.-funded Israeli genocide against Palestinians in Gaza,” as stars began to arrive at the award ceremony’s red carpet portion of the evening.
The rally began at around 10:30 a.m. PT and was hosted by a coalition of organizations that included the U.S. Palestinian Community Network, Centro CSO, National Alliance Against Racist & Political Repression, Black Lives Matter LA, the Free Democratic Palestine Movement and the International League of Peoples’ Struggle.
