Our Work Has Only Begun Dear Email, A ceasefire was reached, and our brothers and sisters in Gaza can have their much-needed respite. However, this should not make us complacent. That is why you cannot miss the 18th Palestine Convention, where we come together as one community, one people, in pursuit of justice. This is where we put our ideas into action and transform them into reality, and the setting where our collective efforts produce meaningful and desirable change. Our work for Palestine in the United States didn’t start on October 7th, 2023, and it doesn’t end today. The Palestinian people have sacrificed far too much for us to stop now. The Palestinian struggle for freedom, justice, and liberation is our goal, so our work must persist until those aims are achieved.  This so-called “peace plan” still leaves Gaza in pieces. The American people have awakened to the reality on the ground, that what they witnessed over the last 2 years was not an aberration but rather an intensification of an already existent oppressive regime. The tide is shifting in America, and more people are growing in their awareness of the Palestinian struggle. We must utilize this moment and take that growing awareness to new heights. The 18th Palestine Convention from November 27-29 in Tinley Park, IL, is the place to do just that. While Gaza receives its much-needed rest, we in the U.S. must never rest until there’s a free Palestine. Onwards,
American Muslims for Palestine
