Massachusetts Funds Genocide
As of 2024, Massachusetts has about $2.1 billion invested in companies linked to nuclear weapons, like Raytheon, Northrop Grumman, and Lockheed Martin — all of which arm Israel in its attacks on Palestinians.
Massachusetts Jews Say Stop Weaponizing Our Identity
We want an equitable and effective approach to addressing antisemitism in MA. We have seen how the federal government is weaponizing charges of antisemitism to justify crackdowns and are concerned that the MA Special Commission on Combatting Antisemitism’s actions will lead to similar silencing and policing of speech.
Legislative Advocacy
We focus on the US' funding of Israel's genocide of Palestinian and illegal occupation with tax dollars, our right to boycott, and fighting white supremacy and antisemitism in ways that are inseparable from our struggle for justice for Palestinians. We work to lift up our Palestinian, Muslim, and Arab partners' voices.
Building Intersectionality and fighting white nationalism
Through our coalition work and ongoing education, we build connections that are critical to our intersectional approach to freedom and liberation. Interested in having a anti-Zionist Jewish voice speak to your group? Contact: jvpb-pol-ed@googlegroups.com
Advocating for Palestine in the Media
JVP Boston works to advocate for Palestine in local and national media. We do this in part by writing letters to the editor to do our best to ensure the the anti-Zionist viewpoint is represented in a biased media environment.
