Pro-Palestinian protestors stretched a reportedly 2-mile long banner, dubbed the “People’s Red Line,” outside the White House on Saturday, as a part of a protest against the Biden Administration’s response to the war in Gaza.
The protest, which brought out a reported 75,000 people, encircled the White House, according to the ANSWER coalition, one of the protest’s organizers.
The banner, which lists every Palestinian killed since Oct. 7, is held by thousands of protestors, some of whom traveled for 16 hours by bus to D.C. to attend the protest.
