Who are we?

We are a group of students at Johns Hopkins Univesity who believe in the importance of raising awareness about the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in the Johns Hopkins community and explore the voice of the Palestinian people largely unexplored on campus.

What’s our purpose?

The purpose of Students for Justice in Palestine is to draw awareness to the plight of the Palestinian people under Israeli occupation. We will encourage students that want to learn about and understand Palestinian people’s rights to advocate for the Palestinian voice. We plan to present the Palestinian perspective while avoiding offering solutions.

Our dedication to the human rights of the Palestinian people is rooted in a fundamental respect for the human rights of all people. These include the right of all civilians, including Palestinians and Israelis, not to be the targets of violence. We welcome individuals of all ethnic and religious backgrounds to join in solidarity with the struggle for justice for all in Palestine.

So what is it we will do?

We will attempt to visualize the Palestinian struggle through guest speakers, screening documentaries, poetic and musical performances, dialogues, and political activism.
