May 15, 2023 @ 1:00 pm
From AFCFP:
Thank you so much for helping spread the word about Combatants for Peace’s upcoming Joint Nakba Ceremony. As you know, the Joint Nakba Ceremony will take place this Monday, May 15, at 1:00pm ET. Please find attached graphics that you can use to promote the ceremony – if you could send out one last invite to your community, we would greatly appreciate it. I have included some language below that you can use to invite others:
Option 1:
At Combatants for Peace, Israelis, Palestinians, and international allies acknowledge the Nakba together. As we collectively grieve, we heal, transform despair into hope, and unite to end the injustice. Join Combatants for Peace on May 15th at 1pm ET for the 2023 Joint Nakba Remembrance Ceremony. Together, we are showing the world that there is another way and creating a future where all those who live on the land can flourish, free from occupation and dispossession. Register today: www.afcfp.org/nakba-2023/
Option 2:
Join Combatants for Peace on May 15th for Combatants for Peace’s fourth Joint Nakba Remembrance Ceremony. We are proud that [our organization] is an official sponsor this year. Together, we commemorate the displacement and erasure of hundreds of Palestinian communities, which started in 1948 and continues to the present. The Joint Nakba Remembrance Ceremony expresses the belief that peace and reconciliation involve a sincere and honest reckoning with history. Acknowledging and honoring the Palestinian experience is the only path to healing our collective trauma and forging a peaceful future with true equality, freedom, and dignity for all – and just like with the Joint Memorial Ceremony, we do it together – Palestinians, Israelis, and internationals. Register for the Joint Nakba Remembrance Ceremony today: www.afcfp.org/nakba-2023/
