Over the past few weeks, we’ve seen Palestine take center stage at the World Cup in Qatar, with daily displays of solidarity from fans and teams alike. Our video on the unprecedented levels of Palestine solidarity at the tournament has garnered over 1.2 million views across our social media platforms.
While the mainstream media was slow to report about Palestine’s role at the World Cup, with some even painting the support for Palestine as antisemitic, Mondoweiss was talking directly to audiences via social media and breaking the barriers between those who support Palestine and the rest of the world.
Thanks to your support, with the Mondoweiss’ video production unit, we are giving those voices a platform and a place to be heard. Videos are often expensive to make. An in-depth report can cost $5,000.
Can you make a generous gift today to produce video journalism from Palestine in 2023? We have until December 31st to reach our goal.
Seeing all the Palestinian flags, Free Palestine banners, and Kuffiyehs take over this World Cup has proved one fact that many of us have known to be true for years: the people believe in a Free Palestine and are determined to make their voices heard.
As the World Cup comes to an end today, the daily presence of Palestine in the global consciousness might fade, but the effect that Palestine and its supporters have had on people’s hearts and minds will no doubt last into the future.
