October 7th did not happen in a vacuum. It was a horrific day, a symptom of a much deeper crisis that began not 3 years ago, but 78 years ago with the Nakba and the ongoing occupation. To understand the present, we must acknowledge the past: 78 years of displacement, 57 years of military occupation, an 18-year siege on Gaza, and now 3 years of a documented genocide. And one year into a so-called ceasefire, the killing has not stopped. The timeline of violence did not start on October 7th; it was a catastrophic escalation in a long history of Palestinian suffering, and it is a history our movement is determined to end.

September 30, 2000. A 12-year-old boy. A father's arms. A moment that the world would never forget.

Mohammed al-Durrah was just a child when he was killed in Gaza — shot as his father desperately tried to shield him. He was one of the first names of the Second Intifada. But for his family, he wasn't a symbol. He was a son. A boy who should have grown up.

More than two decades later, his name still carries the weight of everything that was taken from him — and from so many others.

We remember Mohammed. We remember every child whose life was cut short. We remember the fathers whose arms weren't enough.

🍉 Rest in peace, Mohammed.

Thank you to everyone who came out to Karaoke for Peace last night at White Water Tavern! It was a success! We raised $392 ($216 cash + $176 givebutter). We tabled alongside AR Peace Week to spread the word about LRPP's mission of disrupting the Arkansas-Israel alliance through education & action, we discussed upcoming events including this Sunday's Arkansans for Pension Integrity forum at the Unitarian Universalist Church, and we sang our hearts out to various peace-related songs like Cat Steven's "Peace Train" and The Beatles' "Come Together". Thanks to White Water Tavern for providing the lovely, community-focused space for this event & thank you to those who came out to support and/or donated to the Palestinian cause ❤️

September 16th marks the anniversary of the Sabra and Shatila massacre. Decades have passed, yet the grief remains fresh, and the wound has never healed. We were told "Never Again," but looking at our screens today, we see that the world has learned nothing. The same horrors, the same siege, the same silence. We are witnessing a live, ongoing genocide. History is not just repeating itself; it is screaming at us. We will not look away. 🇵🇸🕊️

Thank you everyone who joined us Saturday for the Global Gaza Kite weekend! 🪁🇵🇸🍉

We listened to the lived experiences of Palestinians in our community speak about resistance and liberation while flying kites in solidarity with the children in Gaza.

Isr*el has banned kite-flying and threatens to attack parts of Gaza after finding kites being flown near the border.

The Z*onist occupation is trying to erase whatever remains of childhood in Gaza.

When children in Gaza are being punished simply for flying kites, we took to the skies to say: children everywhere deserve freedom, joy, and the right to play without fear of airstrikes.

This is more than just kite flying—it's a global act of solidarity.

Let children play.
Let children live.
Stop the Genocide

Hi!

Last Friday, Little Rock Peace for Palestine hosted our 3rd annual community gathering honoring the Nakba Day at Dunbar Garden. Over 70 people came together to remember the Nakba on its 78th anniversary.

Al-Nakba, which means the "great catastrophe" in Arabic, is used to reference the displacement and ethnic cleansing Palestinians faced on May 15, 1948 when Israel was violently created, then later recognized by the UN and international community.

To commemorate the Nakba, we heard from proud Palestinians, Ebrahim, Essa, Raouf, and others regarding their families’ resistance and lives in Palestine before and after the Nakba. We also heard from academic, Dr. Shirin Saeidi, who was recently terminated from her position with University of Arkansas following her public support for Palestine and her call to end the genocide in Gaza.

Together, we shared in traditional Palestinian food while artist, Talia Winkler, painted a mural featuring poppy flowers and watermelon, known symbols of Palestinian resistance.

At the end of the event, we were led by members of the Arkansas Local Food Network in preparing sage and mint, native plants used in Palestinian cuisine, to take home to plant and use to make traditional teas.

Funds were raised for BADIL Resource Center for Palestinian Residency and Refugee Rights, an organization that works with Palestinian refugees and advocates for the right of return.

Thank you for everyone who attended, spoke, and donated to Badil!
