Plum Village Solidarity Council
Purpose
The Plum Village Solidarity Council is a group of Plum Village practitioners who are actively working for Palestinian freedom in this historic time of genocide. The Solidarity Council includes members from ARISE Sangha, Plum Village Palestine Justice Sangha, SWANA+ Sangha, Jews for Palestine Sangha, Sacred Justice Coalition, Parallax Press, and the Fellowship of Reconciliation-USA. We acknowledge that the liberation of Palestinians is inseparable from the liberation of all beings, and therefore we take a clear stance against the oppression and ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people, and a clear stance for ending the current violent Israeli military campaign and occupation of Palestine. This firm and loving stance is grounded in our Bodhisattva vows to respond to injustice with compassion, and is sustained by a practice that supports nonviolent resistance, and the upliftment of the voices of the oppressed. We affirm our commitment to looking deeply to find better ways to prevent war, preserve life, and build peace.
