Minute in Support of the AFSC-led Apartheid Free Communities
Pledge and Network
Brought to you by FMW’s Committee on Peace & Social Concerns
Agreed to at FMW Meeting for Business October 13, 2024
In light of our previous minutes supporting peace and justice in Israel/Palestine, and our specific commitment to “actively support an end to Israel’s occupation and support equal protections and rights for all people living under Israeli control and to commit to actions as meetings/churches until this reality is realized,” Friends Meeting of Washington declares ourselves an Apartheid-Free Community and pledges to join others in the interfaith Apartheid-Free Communities network convened by the American Friends Service Committee to end all support to Israel’s US-backed Apartheid regime so we can fulfill our commitment to seek a future of peace, justice, and equality for ALL in Israel/Palestine.
Seeking a Just Peace in Israel/Palestine - Approved by FMW’s Meeting for Business on July 21, 2024
