Dear John,
As millions of children in the U.S. return to school, students in Gaza continue to be deprived of this right amid Israel’s ongoing attacks. Most schools in Gaza have been damaged or destroyed. Those that remain have become shelters for displaced Palestinians. Recently, AFSC’s Yousef Aljamal interviewed several young students—ages 8 to 12—about their school memories and what they missed most. Read their stories.
To learn more about education in Gaza and hear from a former teacher in the region, please join AFSC’s Action Hour for a Cease-fire Now this Friday, Sept. 6 at 12 noon ET/9 a.m. PT. Register today.
