Durham, NC -- Protesters gathered at a busy intersection outside the Durham Public Library, Nov 4, to show solidarity with Rasmea Odeh. The action coincided with the opening of Odeh’s trial in Detroit.

Hundreds of commuters and passers-by on their way to the polling station at the library saw the protest. The demonstrators held a large banner reading "Justice for Rasmea, Free Palestine!", and distributed literature to those who stopped by.

The newly-formed Durham Antiwar Committee organized the protest.
