PSL Protester May Day / New York, New York / May 1, 2025

A protester from the Party for Socialism and Liberation (PSL) holds a sign calling for funding healthcare, housing, and education instead of war, deportations, and corporate handouts.

Photographed at the May Day 2025 rally in Union Square, NYC, the protest brought together workers, immigrants, and abolitionist groups in opposition to the renewed Trump administration and its anti-worker, anti-immigrant policies.

“My Spirit Died with My Children” – From the Protest at the Israeli Emabassy in Helsinki by MoudBarthez

“My Spirit Died with My Children” – From the Protest at the Israeli Emabassy in Helsinki

A man stands on a Helsinki street, holding up a black Amnesty International sign bearing a haunting quote from Ahmad Nasman, 30, of Rafah, Occupied Gaza:
“My body survived but my spirit died with my children.”
The words are heavy, stark against the cold light of the northern sky. Behind the sign, the Israeli flag is just visible atop the embassy a quiet but undeniable presence in the frame. This image was captured during a peaceful protest demanding a ceasefire and the protection of civilians. It is a moment of grief made visible, held by someone who chooses to carry the voice of another, across borders and silence.

Mies seisoo Helsingin kadulla, pitäen käsissään mustaa Amnesty Internationalin kylttiä, jossa on Ahmad Nasmanin, 30, Rafahista (miehitetty Gaza), tuskallinen lainaus:
“My body survived but my spirit died with my children.”
Sanat ovat raskaita ja selkeitä kylmässä pohjoisessa valossa. Kyltin taustalla, suurlähetystön katolla, liehuu Israelin lippu hiljainen mutta merkityksellinen yksityiskohta kuvassa. Kuva on otettu rauhanomaisesta mielenosoituksesta, jossa vaadittiin tulitaukoa ja siviilien suojelemista. Se on näkyväksi tehty suru ja ele, jossa yksi ihminen kantaa toisen ääntä, yli rajojen ja hiljaisuuden.

Voices in the Cold – Helsinki Calls for a Ceasefire

Protesters stand shoulder to shoulder in front of the Israeli Embassy in Helsinki, holding up Amnesty International signs demanding an end to the war and humanitarian crisis in Gaza. One protester holds a stark black sign quoting Ahmad Nasman from Rafah: “My body survived but my spirit died with my children.” Others carry signs in Finnish reading “Tulitauko nyt!” (Ceasefire now!) and “Loppu kansanmurhalle” (End the genocide). Their voices carry through megaphones, echoing between the cold buildings as people pass by. This image reflects a moment where ordinary people gather not as politicians, but as witnesses using their voices to demand the protection of human life and dignity.

Mielenosoittajat seisovat rinta rinnan Israelin suurlähetystön edessä Helsingissä, käsissään Amnesty Internationalin kylttejä, joissa vaaditaan sodan ja humanitaarisen kriisin lopettamista Gazassa. Yhdessä kyltissä lainataan Ahmad Nasmania Rafahista: “My body survived but my spirit died with my children.” Muiden kylteissä lukee muun muassa “Tulitauko nyt!” ja “Loppu kansanmurhalle.” Megafonien kautta äänet kantautuvat kylmän kaupungin läpi. Tämä kuva tallentaa hetken, jossa tavalliset ihmiset kokoontuvat ei poliittisina toimijoina, vaan todistajina — käyttäen ääntään ihmiselämän ja ihmisarvon puolustamiseen.

Stop Starving Gaza: A Sign Raised Toward Israel Embassy - Helsinki

A protester in a red winter jacket stands facing the Israeli Embassy in Helsinki, holding up a handmade sign that reads “Stop Starving Gaza.” The sign glows faintly from behind, lit by the overcast sun its message clear, even through the paper. Above, the Israeli flag waves high against the sky, overlooking the scene from the embassy rooftop. Below, a yellow tram passes by. Through the windows, the faces of passengers are visible watching, unsure, curious, perhaps confused. Captured during a peaceful demonstration calling for a ceasefire and humanitarian access, this moment freezes a quiet yet charged intersection of protest, state symbolism, and everyday life.

Punaisessa talvitakissa seisova mielenosoittaja pitää käsintehtyä kylttiä kohti Israelin suurlähetystöä Helsingissä. Kyltissä lukee “Stop Starving Gaza” — viesti, joka hohtaa paperin läpi harmaan auringon valossa. Ylhäällä suurlähetystön katolla liehuu Israelin lippu. Alhaalla keltaisen raitiovaunun ikkunat paljastavat matkustajien kasvot — he katsovat ulos, ilmeissään epävarmuutta, hämmennystä tai hiljaista kiinnostusta. Kuva on otettu rauhanomaisesta mielenosoituksesta, jossa vaadittiin tulitaukoa ja humanitaarista apua. Se tallentaa hetken, jossa kohtaavat protesti, valtiollinen symboli ja arjen liikkuva todellisuus.

Voices for Gaza – United Protest at Israeli Embassy, Helsinki

Lined shoulder to shoulder, a diverse group of protesters raise bright yellow Amnesty signs reading “Stop Starving Gaza,” “Stop the Genocide,” and “Ceasefire Now!” in front of the Israeli Embassy in Helsinki. The cold winds of spring didn’t silence their cries — amplified through megaphones, scarves, and determination. This moment, captured at the Ceasefire Now demonstration, reflects the unity of people from many walks of life standing against war, starvation, and collective punishment. It’s a call for accountability, for human dignity, and for the world to pay attention.

🇫🇮 SUOMI
Riviin asettuneet mielenosoittajat nostavat kirkkaankeltaisia Amnesty-kylttinsä korkealle: “Lopettakaa Gazan nälkiinnyttäminen,” “Lopettakaa kansanmurha,” ja “Tulitauko nyt!” Äänet kaikuvat megafoneista ja huudoista, kylmä kevätsää ei hiljentänyt heitä. Tämä kuva on otettu Ceasefire Now -mielenosoituksessa Israelin suurlähetystön edessä Helsingissä, ja se kuvastaa ihmisten yhteistä tahtoa vastustaa sotaa, nälkää ja kollektiivista rangaistusta. Se on vaade vastuusta, ihmisarvosta ja kansainvälisestä tietoisuudesta.

May Day 2025: A City Divided and United – Marching Through the Streets of Helsinki

This wide view captures the magnitude of Helsinki’s May Day (Vappu) 2025 demonstration, stretching from the tram tracks to the tightly packed avenues.
Communist, anarchist, anti-capitalist, and human rights groups march side by side. Red banners, black flags, rainbow colors, Finnish flags, and the symbols of Vesna and Feminist Anti-War Resistance Finland all appear, forming a vibrant and diverse political expression.
Police visibility and mounted officers reflect the large-scale coordination of this public event, held during a time of national austerity and international tension.

Tässä laajakuvassa näkyy vuoden 2025 vappumarssin koko laajuus Helsingin keskustassa.
Kommunistit, anarkistit, antikapitalistit ja ihmisoikeusliikkeet marssivat rinta rinnan. Punaiset liput, mustat liput, sateenkaarivärit, Suomen liput sekä Vesna- ja Feministinen Antisotaliike -symbolit luovat värikkään ja monimuotoisen kokonaisuuden.
Poliisin läsnäolo ja ratsupoliisit kuvaavat suuren mielenosoituksen mittakaavaa ja järjestystä, kun kansalaiset reagoivat sekä kotimaisiin leikkauksiin että globaaleihin kriiseihin.

Capital’s Grip: Hunger and War in the Streets of Helsinki by MoudBarthez

Capital’s Grip: Hunger and War in the Streets of Helsinki

A bold red banner in Finnish reads: “Pääoman valta = nälkää ja sotaa” — “The power of capital equals hunger and war.” This stark message, carried through the heart of Helsinki during May Day 2025, links economic inequality and global conflict to capitalist systems. It’s a powerful reminder of the enduring critiques of capitalism and the call for systemic change.

Punainen banderolli julistaa: “Pääoman valta = nälkää ja sotaa.” Tämä iskulause, joka nähtiin Helsingin kaduilla Vappuna 2025, yhdistää taloudellisen epätasa-arvon ja globaalit konfliktit kapitalistiseen järjestelmään. Voimakas muistutus kapitalismin kritiikistä ja vaatimuksesta järjestelmän muutokseen.


On May 1st, Helsinki’s streets were awash with red as the city’s communist organizations marched in solidarity, echoing a century-long tradition of advocating for workers’ rights and social justice.
