We call for the Noguchi Museum to immediately rescind its ban on the Palestinian keffiyeh, reverse its disciplinary measures against staff, and reaffirm its commitment to social justice, including the rights of Palestinians.

ADL head Jonathan Greenblatt’s offensive comparison between the Palestinian keffiyeh and a Nazi swastika aims to smear Palestinian culture and criminalize Palestinians themselves.

The Herbawi Textile Factory in Hebron is the only producer of the original keffiyeh in all of Palestine. “The keffiyeh is a tradition of Palestine and it should be made in Palestine. We should be the ones making it,” says Izzat Herbawi.
