Nakba Awareness Week

“You can’t separate freedom from peace because no one can be at peace unless he/she has freedom”

The day and evening schedule for Nakba events this week
Volunteers are NEEDED for Set-Up and Tear Down and to participate in symbolic actions

In coordination with The Committee For Justice In Palestine, We encourage your devoted participation in the events planned for this week. Remember there is strength in numbers. The Israeli occupation of Palestine is illegal, it is unjust, and it is ethnic cleansing. We must stand united against this, if we don’t who will?

There is going to be a number of symbolic actions that are representative of the injustices Palestinians are forced to endure. We NEED people for this to be effective. If you’re interested in participating in the Die-In, Mock Check Point, and/or Human Wall

In the event it should rain we will relocate outside of SEL.
