@afsc_org joined our last NRL webinar to talk about the deep connections between the immigration and military industrial complex, breaking down the meaning behind the popular protest chant: “From Palestine to Mexico, all the walls have got to go!” 📢
Israel's attempts to destroy sports in Gaza is about killing the idea of play—of preventing people from having even the aspiration of feeling the wind against your face while chasing a ball, @EdgeofSports writes. bit.ly/4aXZZVz

@EdgeofSports “By playing soccer in the face of state violence, Palestinians are saying that they remain unshackled, that they still have dreams of being free." 🙌⚽️ thenation.com/article/societ…

Around the world, climate change fuels violence and forces people to flee their homes. In this interview, AFSC’s Eunice Ndonga discusses what must be done to support people displaced by climate change. bit.ly/4bg3Zkb
Today my colleagues at AFSC sent me these photos from the #Goalsforgaza soccer tournament which took place in Rafah this weekend. I found the pictures quite emotional in a way I can't quite manage to articulate.
Yesterday, AFSC organized #GoalsForGaza, a soccer tournament for young teens in #Rafah to offer a moment of joy but also send an important message to the world to demand #CeasefireNOW. via @AJEnglish youtu.be/X4MC1hV-YEk?si…
In the most recent legislative session, lawmakers tried to pass several bills that would have harmed low-income residents. But AFSC, partners, and community members organized and advocated to stop these measures from becoming law. Read this recap. bit.ly/4aQ5xS8

An anti-boycott bill is in the New Hampshire state legislature. It's wrong for the state to penalize nonviolent acts of protest against violence, writes AFSC's Maggie Fogarty. (Concord Monitor) bit.ly/3WA8LVF
The triumph of Volkswagen workers’ vote to unionize is fueling organizing in the South. It’s also a huge step in rebuilding union power around the country. Read more from AFSC’s Rick Wilson. bit.ly/3UxHVfg

In just the past six months, more than 34,000 people have been killed in Gaza. In this essay, AFSC staff member Yousef Aljamal, who is originally from Gaza, reflects on the mounting human toll and the urgent need for international action. bit.ly/4aQ5ndu
It's been 30 years since apartheid ended in South Africa AFSC worked with D.C. policy groups, students, unions, churches, and municipalities to call for divestment and an end to apartheid. Now in 2024, we call for an end to Israel's apartheid regime. afsc.org/apartheid-free…
AFSC’s team in Gaza has provided vital humanitarian aid to over half a million people. Tomorrow, they are holding a soccer tournament for kids in Rafah. Here are some simple ways you can show solidarity with our #GoalsForGaza event. bit.ly/3w9g3oq
Proud to stand with @afsc_org, @amnestyusa, @CIHRS_Alerts, @amprog, @CivCenter, @CIPolicy, @demandprogress, @fairsqprojects, @FCNL, @hrw, @RefugeesIntl, @SavetheChildren, @WinWithoutWar & many more. mideastdc.org/publication/jo…
In response to this week's supplemental aid package, we joined 24 civil society groups to urge the Biden administration and Congress to uphold US law & policy & international law by withholding the transfer of additional lethal military aid to Israel. mideastdc.org/publication/jo…
We unite in solidarity with students peacefully protesting on campuses across the country. It's time for universities - and all responsible investors - to divest from companies profiting from Israel's attacks on #Gaza.

My latest piece @thenation - while FIFA will debate sanctioning Israel for its war on the people of Gaza, the American Friends Services Committee staged a youth soccer tournament in Rafah: a reminder that kids with dreams are casualties of this horrid war thenation.com/article/societ…
@EdgeofSports “By playing soccer in the face of state violence, Palestinians are saying that they remain unshackled, that they still have dreams of being free." 🙌⚽️ thenation.com/article/societ…
So proud of my @afsc_org colleagues in #Gaza who pulled off this #GoalsforGaza event in Rafah! May we be inspired by their strength and community as we commit to work for a permanent #ceasefire, humanitarian aid access, and end to US-supplied bombs youtu.be/X4MC1hV-YEk?si…
Not reinstating the funding "would be a moral stain on this Administration and Congress's legacy," the groups said in a joint letter, which was first seen by @HuffPost. Exclusive coverage from @Rowaida_Abdel: huffpost.com/entry/biden-co…
“The rapid onset of famine and its consequences for the civilian population should mark an inflection point for the Biden Administration and members of Congress on Gaza. Stopping famine through a massive humanitarian aid effort must be the top immediate U.S. policy objective in…
“The world is watching and will not soon forget the callousness of the United States’ refusal to fund UNRWA’s crucial aid for Palestinians during this catastrophic and deadly conflict. As the U.S. fails to act, children and families are being displaced in shocking numbers, and…
“By prohibiting funding to UNRWA, Congress has cemented the United States’ complicity in a humanitarian catastrophe which threatens millions of Palestinian lives. It is an extension of a failed foreign policy that does not reflect the will of a majority of Americans. Exposing a…

“Cutting off life-saving funding to UNRWA at a time when millions of Palestinian refugees in Gaza are being bombarded, displaced, and starved is unconscionable. This impulsive and hyperbolic response by the United States amounts to collective punishment of Palestinians. Without…

Today my colleagues at AFSC sent me these photos from the #Goalsforgaza soccer tournament which took place in Rafah this weekend. I found the pictures quite emotional in a way I can't quite manage to articulate.
At a time when students are asking their colleges and universities to divest their endowments from genocide & war, I want to encourage faculty to check your own retirement/investment accounts for war profiteering & state violence @afsc_org: investigate.afsc.org
Not just colleges, everyone could benefit from thinking about our complicity. “May we look upon our treasure, the furniture of our houses, & our garments, & try to discover whether the seeds of war have nourishment in these our possessions,” J. Woolman, A Plea For The Poor, 1763
I do this on Fridays and you can too. It's a one hour Zoom led by Palestinian organizers. You'll learn, find out about other actions, and make calls to your congressional reps.
This week for AFSC Action Hour, we're joined by Iman Abid-Thompson, director of advocacy at @USCPR_. We'll connect in breakout groups and learn about #Gaza advocacy efforts around the U.S. Join us Friday, April 26 at 12 p.m. ET. Sign up today: afsc.org/actionhour
Students are identifying investments in war in The New School endowment’s portfolio. Highly recommend using this tool from @afsc_org to search mutual funds to see if they contain any investments in prisons, occupations, or borders: investigate.afsc.org
