 Dear Supporter, We’re so excited to announce that we will be hosting our 13th annual convention for Palestine in the US all online and free from Friday, November 27 to Sunday, November 29, 2020, the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. The event will be streamed live on Facebook and Youtube. Register today at no cost and be entered into a raffle drawing to win amazing prizes.
This year’s theme is Against All Odds: Palestine Beyond 2020. The Palestinian people and cause will survive 2020. Despite the major setbacks we've faced this year due to more potential formal annexation, Arab normalization, the Trump administration’s policies, the coronavirus pandemic, Israel’s murders of Palestinians in cold blood at checkpoints, massive home demolitions in Jerusalem, and ongoing suffocating siege of Gaza, Palestine will rise against all odds. I know it's hard to imagine now, but it will happen. Palestine will prevail AGAINST ALL ODDS. Our nine sessions over three days will focus on the tremendous work of Palestinians in the diaspora and on the ground who continue working for this just and noble cause. The sessions will feature speakers from around the country and globally, who’ve committed themselves to different facets of this work from Black-Palestinian solidarity to analyzing the impact of the US presidential election on Palestine. This is surely going to be our most dynamic program yet! Please be sure to check out all of our sessions at our convention website soon. All of this will be FREE! Yes, you read that right, absolutely free. There’s also a free raffle to win prizes ranging from kunafa to Palestine paraphernalia and more. Register for the convention and automatically be entered for the free raffle!
Sincerely,
Taher Herzallah
Convention Committee Lead
P.S. We also wanted to make sure you saw this important announcement that AMP won a major legal victory in court this week. A judge once again dismissed a frivolous lawsuit against us which sought to bankrupt us for an action that happened before AMP was even in existence.
Our legal victory, which would not have been possible were if not for the heroic efforts of our friends at the Constitutional Law Center for Muslims in America, which is funded by the Muslim Legal Fund of America. There are no words that can express the depth of our gratitude and appreciation for its efforts and wonderful work. The lawsuit was yet another attempt to try to intimidate and silence organizations and individuals who speak and advocate for Palestinian rights. We are glad to inform you that this attempt failed.
