Daoud Nassar is a Palestinian Christian farmer whose family works its 100-acre farm and olive grove just outside the West Bank town of Bethlehem. Daoud will discuss his activities at Tent of Nations (TON), a dynamic peace and local education center where Israelis, Palestinians, and internationals join together in solidarity in the pursuit of peace through non-violent activities.

Faculty for an Israeli-Palestinian Peace (FFIPP) is an international network of faculty and students working for a just peace in the Middle East. FFIPP sponsors annual semester-long and summer Israel/Palestine internship programs for University students interested in gaining first-hand experience in the region. Past interns have worked at UN agencies, local human rights organizations, political think tanks, and cultural associations in both Israel and the Palestinian Territories.

Divest for Justice in Palestine!

We are Palestinians, Americans, Jews, Christians, Muslims, students, professionals, parents, community members and allies working together to bring Palestine-centric education to Minnesota in order to promote justice and human rights.

We believe:

We, the people of Minnesota, have the moral obligation to make sound investments that will not aid the oppression of any one race, creed or people. Minnesota’s investment in Israel supports an apartheid system in both Israel and the Occupied Territories that causes thousands of civilian deaths, many of whom are children, and which involves the widespread abuse of human rights. This system defies a ruling by the International Court of Justice as well as more than 65 UN Resolutions, and violates the Fourth Geneva Convention. We demand that the state of Minnesota act on its good conscience and support the breaking of economic ties with the apartheid state of Israel.

We say, Minnesota divest from Israel Bonds, Divest for Justice in Palestine!
