Join us! Unitarian Universalists for Justice in the Middle East invites you to hear personal journeys from Palestinian and Jewish members of Jewish Voice for Peace Central Ohio on their fight for Palestinian liberation.

Join Unitarian Universalists for Justice in the Middle East for this month’s “Palestine/Israel 101” teach-in, this time with presenters Farrell Brody and Fadi Suleiman, Jewish and Palestinian leaders of Jewish Voice for Peace Central Ohio. They will share their experiences in Israel and Palestine and talk about their opposition to the ideology of Zionism. In the current time of increasing official suppression of First Amendment rights, we must preserve spaces where people can talk about this topic and insist that it is not antisemitic to hold this viewpoint.
