Thanks for highlighting beauty of Palestine

In an account of her travels in Palestine, Safiya Patel shares honest stories about her experiences, including interactions with Israeli soldiers and photographs that depict Palestinian architecture, culture, and some images of the occupation. A snapshot of the beauty of Palestine, as well as the travesty of life under brutal occupation, are effectively captured in words and photographs. Her article, as well as The Varsity’s decision to publish it, deserve thanks.

CJPME acknowledges that our offices, located in Montreal, are on the unceded, unsurrendered Territory of the Kanienʼkehá꞉ka (Mohawk), whose presence here reaches back to time immemorial.  CJPME recognizes the Kanienʼkehá꞉ka as the customary keepers and defenders of the St. Laurence River Watershed and its tributaries. We honour their long history of welcoming many Nations to this beautiful territory and uphold and uplift the voice and values of our Host Nation.  Further, CJPME respects and affirms the inherent and Treaty Rights of all Indigenous Peoples across this land. CJPME has and will continue to honour the commitments to self-determination and sovereignty we have made to Indigenous Nations and Peoples.  CJPME also acknowledges the historical oppression of lands, cultures and the original Peoples in what we now know as Canada and fervently believes that its work should contribute to the healing and decolonizing journey we all share together.
