Register ASAP - 10 days until Palestine Advocacy Days

Dear Email,

We’re only TEN days away from the 7th Annual Palestine Advocacy Days, to be held the week of September 27-October 1. This year, Palestine Advocacy Days will be hosted by Americans for Justice in Palestine Action (AJP Action), a new political advocacy organization affiliated with American Muslims for Palestine (AMP). Click here for more information and to register.

Congresswomen Judy Chu and Betty McCollum will be two of several Members of Congress who will be joining us on September 28 for a plenary session entitled “Ending Business as Usual: Advancing Palestinian Rights in the Biden Era.” At this session, we’ll be honoring Rep. Rashida Tlaib as this year’s Champion of Palestinian Rights.

And our plenary on “Ending US Complicity in Israeli Apartheid,” which will feature Emmy-nominated journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, Taurean Webb of Harvard Divinity School, Omar Shakir of Human Rights Watch, and Eva Borgwardt of If Not Now, is a conversation you don’t want to miss!

Of course, the centerpiece of Palestine Advocacy Days is you, Email. Register now and we’ll train you to meet with your Members of Congress and we’ll even schedule your meetings with them.

It’s so important for concerned constituents to express their views to their elected officials, and this is your chance to advocate (virtually) on Capitol Hill for Palestinian rights! 

As Palestinians have been facing the threat of ongoing ethnic cleansing, brutal state-sanctioned violence, and an overall continuation of human rights violations, momentum for the Palestinian human rights movement in the US has been evergrowing. Our consistency in pushing for Palestinian human rights has proven that change is possible. We can’t stop now, and participating in Annual Palestine Advocacy Days is a part of this consistency. 

This year, Palestine Advocacy Days will be virtual, giving everyone the opportunity to participate from anywhere in the country. Check out our newest testimonial video below from Iman, a Palestinian activist from CA's Bay area, who participated virtually last year. 

Registration is still FREE, so don’t miss this offer and register ASAP. Be sure to share with all of your friends and family who care about the liberation of Palestine and the Palestinians, and urge them to join us in the struggle against Israeli oppression. 

 

Thank you for continuing to be a part of the fight for a free Palestine. 

Sincerely,

Ayah Ziyadeh

Advocacy Director, AJP Action

 

P.S. Yesterday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez introduced an amendment to the National Defense Authorization Act to halt the delivery of $735 million of joint direct attack munitions to Israel, the same weapon which Israel used to commit some of its most atrocious acts against Palestinian civilians in Gaza this May.

AJP Action is proud to endorse this important amendment. Spread the word on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
