On Wed the 25th of October, Jewish antiwar activists marched from Columbus Circle (itself a monument to brutal settlers) to the US Capitol against the war in Gaza. Protesters got past bike cops, then explained that the stones were for a ritual normally practiced at gravesites and not for throwing.This allowed them to pass the stones forward and lay them on the Capitol reflecting pool's rim as though at a grave. Afterwards protesters read the names of some of the dead from Gaza, many of them children.
While this protest took place, other protesters carried out civil disobedience sit-ins in the offices of multiple members of Congress, resulting in numerous arrests
