Last fall, we released research to challenge our U.S. cultural and education institutions for legitimizing and propping up the very people who profit from genocide and war.
Our Genocide Gentry project identifies the executives and board members of six major weapons companies that are currently providing bombs, jets, tankers, and more to Israel and who also hold prestigious and powerful positions at our museums, cultural organizations, universities, and hospitals.
Join Action Center on Race & the Economy, Adalah Justice Project, and LittleSis for a webinar about the Genocide Gentry on Thursday, April 24 from 6pm-7:15pm Eastern time.
This webinar will present the research and methodology to inspire participants to investigate their own institutional connections to genocide. We will also discuss how to leverage this type of research to drive meaningful change in our communities, hold institutions accountable, and stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people.
People across the United States are protesting the billionaires and corporations putting profits over people. April 17, for example, was the National Day of Action for Higher Education, which—among other demands—is affirming the right of every student, teacher, worker, and community member to assemble, protest, and speak out on issues of social justice, including Palestine and divestment.
Together, we can dismantle the power of the genocide gentry. Join us to learn how
