We are a movement of U.S. Jews organizing our community to end U.S. support for Israel's apartheid system and demand equality, justice, and a thriving future for all Palestinians and Israelis.
Enough is enough.
We’re sick and tired of pro-Trump, pro-war, anti-Palestinian communal “leaders” holding themselves up as the official representatives of Jews in the press and in the halls of power.
They don’t speak for us. We do.
A majority of U.S. Jews believe in freedom and democracy for all Palestinians and Israelis and oppose forced mass starvation in Gaza, expanding apartheid in the West Bank, funding for bombs over schools and healthcare, and complicity with Trump’s racist authoritarianism.
It’s time we got organized and spoke for ourselves.
The self-appointed spokespeople have weapons developers and billionaire Trump donors behind them. The only way for us to drown them out is with people power – in our synagogues, our shabbat tables, and the streets. That means a movement built by and accountable to its members.
It’s going to take all of us.
No one is going to build the Jewish future for us. If we’re going to build it, we have to provide the resources ourselves. The more people join, the stronger our collective voice, the harder it is for those in power to dismiss us, and the closer we are to shared safety and a thriving future for all.
The Ongoing Crisis in Gaza: Expert Briefing
It’s been a month since the Israel-Hamas ceasefire agreement went into effect. Yet over the past few weeks, the Israeli military has continued to launch strikes on Gaza, killing at least 236 Palestinians since October 10. At the same time, the Israeli government is also restricting humanitarian and food aid to Gaza — a direct violation of the ceasefire agreement.
Join us for a national briefing on the ongoing crisis in Gaza on Thursday, November 13 at 6:30PM ET / 3:30PM PT.
On the call, we’ll hear from experts including:
Ahmad Abuznaid, Executive Director, US Campaign for Palestinian Rights Action
Lara Friedman, President, Foundation for Middle East Peace
The conversation will be moderated by IfNotNow Executive Director Morriah Kaplan.
Tell Congress: Block the Bombs.
Since October 2023, the U.S. has sent over $30 billion in weapons to the Israeli military.
During this period, the Israeli military has systematically targeted Palestinians in Gaza, killing at least 62,000 people and starving and displacing millions.
Yet our government continues to funnel weapons to Israel in violation of U.S. and international law, enabling its ongoing assault on Palestinians in Gaza.
The Block the Bombs Act is historic, standalone legislation that proactively challenges U.S. complicity in Israel’s genocide in Gaza by prohibiting the sale or transfer of some of the most lethal and commonly used U.S.-made weapons.
Email your member of Congress NOW to urge them to cosponsor and support the Block the Bombs Act.
