Join thousands in Chicago for AMP’s 18th Palestine Convention Dear Email, Never in the history of the Palestinian people have we faced such annihilation. Not during the great revolt of 1936. Not during the Nakba of 1947-49. Not during the Naksa of 1967. This is something entirely different. Never have the Palestinian people been so devastatingly abandoned by the powers that be or the organizations and international mechanisms designed to prevent the crime of genocide. But the Palestinian people have been facing genocide for more than a century. They’ve not only developed ways to survive but also to thrive under the most difficult circumstances. Resisting genocide has become part of the culture, politics, and being of the Palestinian people. It is what has prevented our complete erasure despite the efforts of the American empire and Zionist colonization. That is why our convention theme this year is Beyond Survival: Resisting Genocide. As we relentlessly work to end the genocide in Gaza, we commit ourselves to thinking beyond the survival of our people and our cause. From November 27-29, thousands will gather to not only discuss the ongoing genocide but also how we come out of it as a people, a movement, and a cause. Our comprehensive program includes something for everyone. From young children to college students and community leaders, this convention provides an opportunity for all to contribute to this just and noble cause. This year, we’ll be joined by leading Palestinian leaders and thinkers, featuring Mosab Abu Toha, Dr. Hatem Bazian, Dr. Osama Abu Irshaid, Ahmad Abuznaid, and Laila Elhaddad. Former Congress members Cori Bush and Jamaal Bowman, as well as authoritative academics such as Dr. Ramzy Baroud and Dr. Norman Finkelstein, along with influencers like Summer Homayed and Salem Furrha, a.k.a. “Pops” of the Furrha Family, and many more, will be the main features of the event.
