Join us on May 15th for a night of readings to commemorate 76 years of the Nakba and to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian liberation struggle. Nakba Then and Now: Refuse Silence invites you to raise your voice, amplify the Palestinian resistance, and demand an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. Registration link in bio.
Nakba Day marks the devastation of the Palestinian homeland in 1948 through ethnic cleansing and expulsion of a majority of Palestinian people. The Nakba, or the Catastrophe, is commemorated on May 15th of each year through demonstrations, strikes, protests and by memorializing the names of villages that were uprooted or destroyed. Nakba Day is about resisting expulsion and erasure.
Today, as we are witnessing another Nakba, the world is also rising up on every continent. We invite you to join in this resistance.
We will also be raising funds for the following organizations:
The Ghassan Abu Sittah Children’s Fund @dr.ghassan.as
UNRWA Gaza Emergency Appeal @unrwa
