The 21st Joint Palestinian-Israeli Memorial Ceremony, organised by the Parents Circle-Families Forum and Combatants for Peace, will take place on Monday 20th April.

In these times of deep despair over the expanding conflicts in Iran, Lebanon, Israel, Gaza and the West Bank, constant news of violence is overwhelming, and hope can seem out of reach. Yet even now, under extremely difficult conditions, Palestinians and Israelis come together to refuse to accept this as normal and to honour the memory of loved ones lost to the conflict, to demand an end to the occupation and ongoing violence and reaffirm their commitment to a path of peace and solidarity.

Brighton Friends of Standing Together are hosting a live screening of the Joint Palestinian-Israeli Memorial Ceremony: at the same time as other FOST groups and partner organisations across the UK, Europe and worldwide.

We invite you to come and watch the ceremony with us and take this moment for quiet reflection. When we come together we can also stand stronger in our shared commitment to oppose this forever war and oppression, so that we may also renew our resolve to work for a new normal, where all citizens are free and equal.
