Together with our families in the homeland, we are struggling to

solidarity activists, help design and energize for the coming
year's work. This year significant discounts for the convention
will be made available (see below).


JOIN US
at the largest annual gathering of Palestinians and their
supporters to work together to bring the days of Return closer!

CELEBRATE with us the 10th year since the founding of our
organization!

This year's convention will mark the 62nd year of the Nakba and
the Palestinian struggle to return home. It comes just one year
after the murderous attack on our people and the continuing siege
of the Gaza Strip. It will also take place in the midst of the
intensification of the dispossession and expulsion of our people
from Jerusalem, and Zionist efforts to take over our holy sites
throughout Palestine.

Invited speakers include:
a.. His Excellency Hilarion Capucci, exiled archbishop of Jerusalem
b.. Dr. Mustafa Barghouti (confirmed), Palestinian political figure
c.. Congressman Dennis Kucinich
d.. Hamdi Qandil, renowned Egyptian journalist and commentator
e.. Dr. Tamim Al-Barghouti, Palestinian poet, author, political
scientist
f.. Abbas Al-Nouri, Syrian actor, activist (Abu Esam in Bab el
Hara)
g.. Ali Abunimah (confirmed), Palestinian author, co-founder
Electronic Intifada
Tactics and planning discussions will include:
a.. Refugee support
b.. Boycotts & divestment
c.. US aid to Israel in this time of financial crisis
d.. Round-table discussion with keynote speakers followed by Q & A
e.. Youth program with hands on workshops


Mobilizing our efforts now is crucial! Your participation is
urgently needed!

and organizing projects Al-Awda is leading.
