Human rights for all must include Palestinians. This shouldn’t be controversial, yet too often it is. Palestinians remain excluded, from basic rights, from justice, and even from having their supporters speak freely.
They have faced decades of killing, displacement, and dispossession. Today, they are fighting for their very survival, not only in Gaza. A recent UN statement warned of the potential annihilation of the Palestinian population, calling it a merciless desecration of human life and dignity.
We all have a responsibility. Every action, no matter how small, counts. That’s why I support Bystanders No More. They help people move past fear and silence, offering crucial support to those who speak out for Palestinian rights.
In times when telling the truth is costly, Bystanders No More ensures those voices are heard and protected. Their work is essential, not just for Palestinians, but for the principle of universal human rights. We cannot afford to be bystanders.
