Zochrotw Educational Resource on
From Nakba to Return
The Israeli group Zochrot was founded in 2002 by a small group of Jewish-Israeli activists in order to call for the recognition of the Nakba and the Palestinian refugees’ right of return. Zochrot acts “to promote Israeli Jewish society’s acknowledgement of and accountability for the ongoing injustices of the Nakba“.
“As we commemorate Palestinian Land Day (March 30) )and the anniversary of the Gaza Return March, let us remember the history of dispossession and resistance that defines the Palestinian experience. It is imperative that we acknowledge the role of institutions like the JNF (Jewish National Fund) in facilitating the systematic takeover of Palestinian land and preventing the return of displaced Palestinians.
We are proud to announce the launch today of a new educational resource focused on the role of KKL-JNF, available to anyone seeking knowledge and wishing to engage in advocacy and action. Join us in our mission to stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people, to honour the memory of those who have been killed, and to build a future rooted in truth, reconciliation, and justice for all.
Visit our new minisite, bear witness to the untold stories, and join us in our collective effort to expose JNF to ensure that the past is not forgotten and that history does not repeat itself.
