NorthPark Mall Protest

A NorthPark mall protest interrupted Black Friday Christmas shoppers in North Dallas yesterday by the Party for Socialism and Liberation.

The party called to “free Palestine” the same day a ceasefire had started in Israel.

Palestinians celebrated the ceasefire by lynching two members of their community in Gaza alleged to have collaborated with Israel.

NorthPark Center does have a Code of Conduct which states in part “Not staging any form of public event or protest…”

It is unclear why management allowed the protestors to continue. The mall regularly employs local law enforcement on an off duty basis.
