A soundscape of chants, music and some street speakers (as in those not on the stage) and incidental sounds from the National March for Palestine on 18th May 2024, to commemorate the Nakba. The demonstration finished in Whitehall, although many sat in Trafalgar Square, where there was an event by the Sri Lankan Tamil community, commemorating 15 years since the end of the civil war and also the genocide committed there. Coincidentally as with the Palestine situation, there are also connections to the British Empire.
As always the march was hugely diverse, with a sizeable Jewish Bloc.
