A pro-Palestine objection is being planned in Park City to accompany the Sundance Film Festival, with individuals contacted to sign up with a Jan. 21 demo on Key Road.

According to social networks, the occasion, entitled “Let Gaza Live,” will certainly see militants get here by shuttle bus to Key Road and march to a presentation factor at 12:30 p.m on Sunday.
The message proceeds:“Park City is home to the largest indie film fest in the U.S.; tens of thousands travel across the globe to attend the event. While we do not take issue with Sundance as a whole, we aim to let spectators & news reporters know that Utah stands with Palestine.”
The objection is not associated with theSundance Film Festival The Palestinian Uniformity Organization of Utah kept in mind that safety at the objection will certainly be dealt with by a Utah-based org, Armed Queers of Salt Lake City. Park City Cops Division will certainly give safety as required.
“We have also been made aware of the demonstration and its commitment to maintaining a peaceful environment,” the Sundance Institute used in a declaration.“While the organizers are non-affiliated with the Festival itself, the safety and security of our festival goers is always of concern to us, and we consistently work with local law enforcement to uphold an environment that is welcoming, inspiring and secure for all our attendees.”
