Holding Israel Accountable: Zoom Webinar on March 16, 2022

On March 16, 2022, it will be 19 years since Rachel Corrie’s killing. Amnesty International recently published a report calling “Israel’s apartheid against Palestinians a cruel system of domination and a crime against humanity.” We would like to invite the community to attend a zoom webinar on “Holding Israel Accountable,” featuring voices and perspectives from the Palestinian Diaspora, solidarity groups, and current actions being taken in the United States and internationally. Co-hosted by the Madison-Rafah Sister City Project. Wednesday, March 16th, 5 pm – 6:30 PST.
