SUMMARY:Learn about Activism for Peace in the Middle East
DESCRIPTION:Are you disturbed by the ongoing Israeli bombardment of Gaza with over 50\,000 Palestinians killed and rampant human rights violations? Are you upset about the billions of United States dollars in unconditional military aid to Israel? Were you appalled by President Trump’s call for ethnic cleansing of Palestinians from Gaza? Are you ready to learn what UUs can do to work for peace and human rights in Palestine/Israel? \nIf the answer to any of these questions is yes\, we hope you will join us on Tuesday\, February 25th to learn about Unitarian Universalists for Justice in the Middle East (UUJME) and how we can take action together. UUJME was founded in 1971 to educate and mobilize UUs to greater understanding and action for a just peace in Palestine/Israel.  There are over 12 UUJME chapters with over 2\,000 members. \nIn June of 2024\, the UUA General Assembly adopted an Action of Immediate Witness (AIW) called Solidarity with Palestinians. Our work is made more urgent by the calls for ethnic cleansing in Gaza and the increase in violence and forced removal of Palestinians in the West Bank. We hope that you will join our efforts in alignment with this denominational call to action. \nJoin us on February 25th to learn more about UUJME and to get to know other congregants who are seeking community as we work for peace and human rights.  Let us know if you are coming\, or if you can’t come but want to stay informed\, by filling out this RSVP.
