On April 5th, We're Saying #LastChanceBirthright

  • 0:19 - 0:25
    Since the 90s Birthright has grown exponentially
    with funding from Sheldon Adelson
  • 0:25 - 0:28
    who is a huge donor to Trump.
  • 0:34 - 0:38
    Birthright, what it's really doing is hiding
    the Occupation
  • 0:38 - 0:38
    from Young American Jews like myself.
  • 0:50 - 0:54
    Young Jews have actually been demanding better
    education
  • 0:54 - 0:56
    on the Birthright trips that they go to.
  • 0:56 - 1:01
    Six activists joined by two other Birthright
    participants staged a protest walkout.
  • 1:09 - 1:15
    What we are trying to do is to say to our
    community, 'we deserve the truth.'
  • 1:18 - 1:24
    We're IfNotNow Boston, we're standing outside
    of the CJP offices asking that they confront
  • 1:24 - 1:27
    the crisis of the Occupation this summer on
    their Birthright trips.
  • 1:27 - 1:32
    We received maps with miss marked boundaries
    and little to no honest Palestinian narrative
  • 1:32 - 1:34
    regarding the realities of life under Occupation.
