Armed Israeli settlers are burning entire Palestinian villages to the ground.

This is not self-defense. It’s terrorism.

Morehouse Alum, Jared Loggins, asks about the elephant in the room.

“Dear Gaza, what does it mean to ask a besieged people to endure when we are the ones perversely, collectively, with the guns in our hands? Refusal is not the least we can do, it’s the only ethical position.”

“We’re leaving a record. When people look back, they will know we refused to support a genocidal regime.

We want people to sit and think for a moment. What do you want to say to the people of Palestine right now?”

As the tide turns globally, I see the effort to pin the blame solely on Netanyahu. The strategy is to resurrect Israel's image in the process of toppling him. But genocide is not a one-man show; the whole system is culpable. Zionism must be abolished. There is no going back.
