SUMMARY:HAMAS TUNNEL - BOSTON CITY HALL PLAZA   AUG 18 - 20th
DESCRIPTION:CLICK HERE FOR INFO AND TICKETS \n \n\n\nBoston Unites Against Terror: Hostage Tunnel Immersive Exhibit \nDate: August 18-20\, 2024 \nLocation: Boston City Hall Plaza \nShort Description: Hamas is still holding over 100 people hostage including 8 Americans – over 9 months of unbearable suffering for them and their families. This walk-through tunnel simulation provides powerful insight into their experience and the opportunity to unite across political divides in the call for their freedom. \nBACKGROUND \nDuring the October 7th brutal attack\, over 1200 people were murdered\, and of them\, 45 were Americans. After almost ten months of captivity\, Hamas is still holding over 100 people hostage\, including 8 Americans – all are being denied access to humanitarian aid and visits by the Red Cross. \nThe Hostage Tunnel Exhibit is an audio-visual simulation of hostages’ experiences in Hamas tunnels in Gaza. Designed in consultation with hostages who were released in November\, with audio from recovered Hamas body cameras and video from inside the tunnels\, this immersive exhibit provides powerful insight into the horrors of Hamas captivity. \nThis exhibit appeared before the UN in Geneva\, Switzerland\, in February and at the National Mall in DC in March. Now\, it is coming to Boston from August 18 through August 20. \nVIEW A 2-MINUTE VIDEO FROM THE GENEVA EXHIBIT \nWalk through the simulation • View the other displays • Talk to hostage families \nLearn about the October 7th terrorist attack on civilians inside Israel \nGet a glimpse of the ~ 300 miles of underground tunnels constructed under Gaza \nFeel for a moment some of the horror the hostages have been enduring for over 9 months \nVisit the exhibit\, gain insight into the hostages’ experience\, and unite across political divides in the call for their freedom! \n\n\n\n\nWHY IS THIS IMPORTANT TO THE CITY OF BOSTON \nBoston carries the wounds of two recent major terrorist attacks: the 2013 Boston Marathon bombing\, where three people were killed and hundreds injured\, and the September 11 attack in 2001\, where 2996 people were killed including over 200 with Massachusetts ties. \nLike the Marathon Bombing and 9/11 attacks\, Hamas’s October 7th attack on Israel was executed by terrorists acting on detailed\, premeditated plans designed to maximize harm and bring down Western democracy and freedom. \nBoston\, with its important civil rights legacy\, and home of the Freedom Trail\, is the natural next stop in the US tour of this important exhibit about the dangers of terrorism.
