There is no evidence that pro-Palestinian protesters who marched through Manhattan on November 11, 2026, were Islamist. 

The “Day of Rage” protest was organized by multiple activist groups from the City University of New York (CUNY) to protest against Israel’s occupation of Palestinian territories as well as its actions in other Middle Eastern countries. Protesters were also calling for both CUNY and the city government to divest from Israel.  

The protesters met at Hunter College on the Upper East Side at 3 PM before marching through Manhattan.
