The Palestine Solidarity Alliance of Hunter College is a non-bully apologist, non-hierarchical group of concerned Hunter College students with an aim to advocate for social justice and human rights for the Palestinian people and those under Israeli occupation. PSA organizes in support of the 2005 Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions call made by Palestinian civil society until Israel meets its obligation to recognize the Palestinian people's inalienable right to self-determination and fully complies with the precepts of international law by:
•Ending its occupation and colonization of all Arab lands and dismantling the Apartheid Wall;
•Recognizing the fundamental rights of the Palestinian citizens of Israel to full equality; and
•Respecting, protecting and promoting the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and properties as stipulated in UN resolution 194. The Palestine Solidarity Alliance of Hunter College will administer cultural, civic, social, and educational events to spread awareness and advocate for the cause of the Palestinian people and those under Israeli occupation. This shall be achieved through educational activities and campaign building. PSA will hold events pertaining to the issues arising from the Zionist occupation. Events will include study groups, panels, film screenings, and discussion forums. PSA will work on providing a safe space within its group by providing a platform for its members free from bullying, ableism, sexism, heterosexism, racism, and all kinds of discrimination. PSA rejects all actions that violate its guiding principles. All individuals or groups acting as members, representatives, or sponsors of PSA of Hunter College are required to adhere to its principles. Our work will address and support topics which include: (1) Raising increasing awareness within the Hunter College community regarding Israel’s violations of international law; (2) Advocating for the BDS call. While PSA works to end the racist Israeli regime of military occupation, apartheid, and colonization, we commit to an ethical position against all forms of racism, and other forms of oppression. PSA seeks to guarantee that our actions and the actions of those within our organization support an anti-racist perspective and do not perpetuate intolerance. Just as in heeding to the BDS call from Palestinians, we acknowledge that oppressed communities everywhere are best-placed to determine how to end their oppression.

Thank you to all who joined our MSAxPSA collaboration paint night!

We decided to do a rock painting night with our members to honor the symbolic significance of stone/rock and art in Palestinian Resistance.

Art in Palestine is used as means of expressing Palestinian struggle and liberation in their land. It’s also used as a reminder that humanizes the Palestinian identity while the rest of the world attempts to dehumanize it.

The stone gained a place in Palestinian thinking since the beginning of the first uprising in 1987. This uprising was a revolution against occupation where the stone was the new rifle that the Palestinian used to defend their land and fight for their freedom (till this day)
Stones aimed at Israeli tanks or weapons were a means for the unarmed indigenous people of Palestine to demonstrate their refusal of occupation and oppression.

Look out for more informative and fun PSA event!!

Repost from Join the protest today at 6 pm infront of “ Friends of the IDF”

“Stand with Gaza tomorrow Monday at 6 PM at 60 E 42nd street in NYC. Spread the word and bring everyone you know. Show the world and the people of Gaza that we stand with Palestine unequivocally and by any means necessary.

At least 43 Palestinians have been killed including 15 children. Their murder was carried out by the zionist entity, and financed by the U.S. Our tax dollars go directly to killing Palestinian people, occupying their land, and enforcing a crippling siege and blockade on Gaza.

It is our responsibility and duty to call for an end to the Zionist entity that murders the indigenous Palestinian people day in and day out, and requires their oppression to exist. It is our responsibility to elevate the people of a guzza as the mainstream media here attempts to silence the truth.
