In response to the urgency of this moment, join us for this Feminist Teach-In series curated by Purposeful, AWID, WHRDMENA, and the Palestinian Feminist Collective with activist scholars from across Occupied Palestine. These interlocking conversations centre feminist indigenous perspectives and community approaches based on lived realities and collective organising. All with the intention of unpacking the reality of what’s happening, and how we can meaningfully and urgently contribute to counter-narrative and political solidarity.
Join for all or as many as you can of these three short sessions, and we urge you to share with others to do the same. Sessions will be in Arabic and English, with live language interpretation in French and Spanish, Sign Language Interpretation, and real-time closed captions.
These events will be moderated, and we envision this as a safe space for Palestinian activists and individuals to share their expertise and lived experiences.

Collective Memory and Indigenous Narratives amid Erasure and Colonial Violence
Join this conversation that draws activist scholars together in documentation, storytelling as resistance and emancipation, intergenerational trauma recovery, and what a revolutionary love ethic looks like both as feminist resistance and as practice of freedom.
