Learn More From Organizations in Israel/Palestine

IfNotNow specializes in bringing the crisis of conscience into full public view for our communal and political leaders. We know that one of the ways that the establishment maintains the status quo is by telling everyone else that unless you’re an expert you’re too naive to take action. So we welcome members to our movement, with varying levels of expertise about the history of Israel/Palestine and the system of occupation. We believe that it is a moral imperative for all Jews to act against the injustice of the occupation.

Still, we understand that many in our community are denied access to information about Israel/Palestine and want to learn more. We encourage you to check out the resources of our partners:
