A left-wing advocacy group founded to mobilize Asian Americans, 18 Million Rising’s stated goal is to “dismantle systems of oppression, fight white supremacy, and work towards a liberated future for Asian Americans and all people.” In response to the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack that left more than 1,200 Israeli civilians dead, 18 Million Rising stated the attack was “the Palestinian people rising up against 75+ years of Israeli settler colonial violence and occupation.” Their reaction post included a graphic which stated “From the

River to the Sea, Palestine Will Be Free.”
