On March 17, 2023, American activists from several pro-Palestine organizations including Within Our Lifetime, Samidoun, and American Muslims for Palestine staged a rally for the Palestinians' "right to resist and mobilize" in front of the United Nations headquarters in New York City. Nerdeen Kiswani from Within Our Lifetime said that the United Nations had "split" Palestine by creating Israel and that the demonstrators have come to "stand in solidarity with Jenin, Nablus, Huwwara, and all of Palestine [and] to defend the Palestinian right to resist." Kiswani added: "We will continue to fight for a free Palestine." The rally's attendees also chanted "From the [Jordan] River to the [Mediterranean] Sea, Palestine will be free!", "We will free Palestine", "Zionism will fall!", and "There is only solution – Intifada, revolution!" Footage from the rally was posted to the Instagram account of Within Our Lifetime and the YouTube account of Christopher Leon Johnson.
