Ongoing pain and loss

I am grateful to be able to read firsthand testimonies from Palestinian survivors. Terry Ahwal's personal account was a welcome addition to the growing body of evidence that political Zionism is quite simply wrong and will continue to become more and more monstrously wrong as long as the "Israel Industry" is allowed to profit from Palestinian pain and loss ("War's end marked beginning of a cruel occupation," June 8).

Al-Awda, The Palestine Right to Return Coalition

Al-Awda Palestine Library Progress Report

The Palestine Library will be a place where information on Palestinian history and the Palestinian struggle to regain their homeland is housed and made available for individuals within and outside the community. It is envisioned as a resource for those interested in the narrative and real history of the Palestinian people presented through their own voices via biographies and memoirs, historical and current events analyses, and literature and poetry. Due to the long years of Zionist influence over the cultural institutions of the US, today's public libraries, and unfortunately even some college libraries, have little or no material representing the Palestinian narrative, creating a void of real and accurate information. With the obvious bias of mainstream media and deliberate attempts to ignore or silence our voices, it really becomes crucial to make this important information available for all.

EVERY HUMAN HAS RIGHTS

Our governments wisely signed it 60 years ago... Now it is time for the people to empower it: Read the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, believe in it, then SIGN IT & take inspiration from the pledge... "I wish to take responsibility for upholding the goals of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in my daily life and in my community. I will do my best to speak out to protect the freedom and rights of others in my community. I affirm the following principle: “Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.” I believe Every Human Has Rights." * Read the Universal Declaration of Human Rights now...
