Thinking about him today...
Please never forget Honorable martyr Matt Nelson, who died by self-immolation in front of the Israeli consulate in Boston in September 2024. 💔
His friend (@a1extimmons.bsky.social) said that Matt also donated organs to help those in need, and that he was a phenomenal person w/a massive heart. 💔
Rest in Peace, and Love, Matt. 🇵🇸

«In an incident all but completely ignored by the U.S. corporate media, a man identified as Matt Nelson set himself alight near the Israeli Consulate in Boston at around 8:15 pm local time on Wednesday, September 11.
"My name is Matt Nelson and I'm about to engage in an extreme act of protest," he said in a video first uploaded to YouTube on Wednesday. "We are all culpable in the ongoing genocide in Gaza."»

A video has surfaced of "Matt Nelson"--who is purportedly the man who self-immolated in front of the Israeli embassy in Boston. If the mainstream media knows anything different and would like to correct this claim, they should feel free to release the /actual/ facts, instead of hiding them. Otherwise, this is what has come out as the claim of attribution for the extreme protest and the reason for it.

"We are slaves to capitalism and the military-industrial complex. Most of us are too apathetic to care. . . I urge any of you who are of sane mind to call your senators and representatives and demand they introduce and advance legislation to achieve these goals. If sitting lawmakers won't, vote for those who will. A democracy is supposed to serve the will of the people, not the interests of the wealthy. Take the power back. Free Palestine."

Matt Nelson self-immolated outside the "Israeli" consulate. He recorded a video just before, explaining his motives. You can find it here, reposted by BDS Boston: https://www.instagram.com/p/C_3OPvJuXBP/
I've done a written transcript as well, found here: https://greasycreekdepot.bearblog.dev/matt-nelson-transcript/
Glory to the martyrs. Solidarity forever. Free Palestine.
