Solidarity with Palestine

May 27, 2021 / PSU-AAUP

Last week the PSU-AAUP Executive Council endorsed the following statement:

"The Executive Council of AAUP speaks out in condemnation of the colonization, occupation, and continuing violence and terror perpetrated by the State of Israel against Palestinians in Gaza, East Jerusalem, and the West Bank. A threat to justice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere and we must not be silent, never again.”

We are aware that speaking up against injustices caused by the State of Israel can re-stimulate for some the wounds caused by a long history of anti-Semitism and other ethnically-based conflicts and genocides throughout the world. We hold space for that pain as well.
