A Statement on Palestine
May 18, 2021
What follows is a love letter written by the Palestinian Feminist Collective. The Palestinian Feminist Collective (PFC) is a US-based body of Palestinian and Arab women and feminists committed to Palestinian social and political liberation through a praxis guided by anti-colonial work and life-affirming decolonization for Palestinians in the homeland and the diaspora.

We are guided by a deep love and respect for the people and lands of Palestine and we weep alongside them while working and envisioning a better present and future for Palestinians.
