On May 15, we mark the Nakba, the catastrophe that was inflicted upon the Palestinian people by Zionist militias and the nascent Israeli army. Over 750,000 people were violently expelled and forced to flee from their lands, over 530 villages were destroyed, and entire communities were massacred and destroyed by Zionists. This year, we mark the anniversary of that catastrophe, which has resulted in 77 years of ongoing ethnic cleansing, dispossession and dehumanization, and now...

Poilievre is threatening to import Trump’s playbook to suppress student activism and freedom of expression for all Canadians. Throughout this election season, Poilievre has promoted far-right policies mirroring Trump’s efforts to suppress Palestine solidarity.

Over the past year and a half, over 51,000 Palestinians have been killed. No aid has entered Gaza...

Every year, Jews around the world gather at Passover to retell the story of our liberation, to celebrate freedom and the resilience of our ancestors. This year, we cannot hear the story of the Israelites’ exodus without thinking of Palestinians enduring Israeli genocide today. The struggle for freedom continues today in Palestine.
