The New Orleans Chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America reaffirms our ongoing opposition to violence against civilians. As an organization dedicated to advancing the well-being of working people, we respect and support the guidelines laid out by International Humanitarian Law as described by the Geneva Conventions, United Nations, and other commissions on human rights.
- A description of international law concerning the killing of civilians is detailed in Rule 89 of the International Humanitarian Law Database, which can be found at this link.
- A summary of other injustices under international law can be found on the United Nations’ website here.
Our chapter condemns violations of international humanitarian law and asks that these laws be upheld without exception.
Solidarity,
New Orleans DSA
