We emerged in the summer of 2020, during the Balfour Protests, as a movement of artists and creatives. Between 2020-2021, we were an active presence in the protest scene, creating over 85 performance installations. From day one, our vision has been to strengthen liberal and democratic values for everyone—regardless of religion, race, or gender—through artistic expression. Like our name suggests, we are always on the forefront—and always in pink.
We were active until the end of the Balfour Protests and the formation of the Bennett-Lapid government in May 2021. Wiith the fall of that government and the rise of Netanyahu’s current administration and the realization that democracy was in real danger—we jumped back into action. Almost immediately, we raised funds for drums and megaphones, wrote protest songs and slogans, and formed our “Pink Army”. With our drums, megaphones, and artistic protests, we have led marches, created powerful visual statements, and inspired countless people to join us.
Our protests are bold, unapologetic, and boundary-breaking—but never violent. We lead a feminist and LGBTQ+ fight that refuses to ignore the “other” and isn’t afraid to use fun and creativity to get the message across.
After October 7, we immediately mobilized for civilian support efforts—helping in agriculture, organizing activities for displaced children, assisting families of hostages in Kaplan Square and later Hostage Square, folding origami butterflies as a symbol of hope, and supporting families in their fight to bring their loved ones home—long before the first hostage deal in November 2023. Wherever there was a need for extra hands and hope—we showed up.
By December 2023, we were back in the streets. We were the first protest organization to demand accountability from the government for its failures. Since then, we have stood with the hostage families at Begin Gate, the Knesset, and anywhere they needed us, while continuing our fight to replace this government.
Now, more than ever, we know that Israel needs deep, long-term change. The first step is a new government and the return of all hostages. The next step? Transforming Israeli society at its core. We came to repair.
