On May 12th, the eve of Yom HaZikaron, we gathered in Zwille for a live screening of the Israeli-Palestinian Joint Memorial Ceremony, standing in solidarity with the Israeli-Palestinian co-resistance movement.
Sharing Our Humanity, Honoring Our Children. Stop the War.
Since October 7, 2023, the lives of all those connected to Israel and Palestine have been irrevocably changed. With tens of thousands of lives lost, families devastated, and children traumatized, the need to mourn, remember, and resist violence together is more urgent than ever.
As we do each year, we came together to call for an end to the bloodshed and demand a political solution grounded in freedom, justice, and safety for all. This year’s ceremony focused on the voices and stories of children—those whose only “crime” was being born Palestinian or Israeli. What future awaits them? How do we protect hope in a time of such sorrow?
Under the theme “Tekes Ba’Salon” (Ceremony in the Living Room), the memorial was hosted in living rooms and public spaces around the world, building community and solidarity across borders. Attendees were invited not only to witness but also to host, share, and carry forward the message of peace.
