To  act-ma  
*BALFOUR's LEGACY: CONFRONTING THE CONSEQUENCES*

When: *Saturday, November 11, 2017, 8 AM to 6 PM*

Where: First Parish in Cambridge, 3 Church Street in the heart of Harvard
Square

What: Panels, workshops and a keynote by *Yousef Munayyer,* Executive
Director, US Campaign for Palestinian Rights

FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC. Suggested donation at the door $10 (or
more). Lunch $5.

The Balfour Declaration committed Britain to the establishment of a
'national home for the Jewish people' in Palestine without consulting the
indigenous population. The conference will explore the consequences of
this British commitment, and how we in the US can push for a just
resolution of a century-old conflict with equal rights for Israelis and
Palestinians.

For a description of the conference, and the list of speakers and
co-sponsors, see www.waterjusticeinpalestine.org/blog, the Alliance for
Water Justice in Palestine Facebook page (if you are on Facebook, please
