Hi Friend,

Like many of you, as we hear from our partners and loved ones and witness the news, we feel deep grief for the loss of life and destruction that has already taken place in Gaza and in Israel/’48. And as it becomes more difficult for people from Gaza to be in touch with the outside world, we feel immense fear for what may come in the days ahead.  

We cannot stand by while the Israeli government’s military attacks and extreme rhetoric pushes the situation to the brink of genocide in Gaza. There is something we can all do right now. Tell Congress: Take immediate steps to de-escalate. This means to call for a ceasefire, press Israel to allow humanitarian aid into Gaza, and refuse to send any additional weapons or aid to the Israeli military. 

Time is running out. Please take 5 minutes now to click here and call your Congressional officials with our ally, the US Campaign for Palestinian Rights. 

Together, our solidarity can make a difference.

With hope amidst the pain,

P.S. On October 25, adrienne maree brown and Devin Attalah will speak at the next Solidarity Encounter on Healing Justice from Black and Palestinian perspectives. It will be a powerful conversation, especially at this moment. You can RSVP here.

P.P.S. Donate today to our Emergency Fund. Our long-term, trusted partners on the ground need your support more than ever.
