Many view Anti-Palestinian Racism as a significant and growing problem in the UK, manifesting at all levels of society and in multiple spheres. We believe this hatred reinforces oppressive & discriminatory systems that dehumanise and demonise Palestinians whilst also fracturing community cohesion. We also believe it damages good faith engagement on very sensitive issues relating to the Israel-Palestine conflict, creates division among UK communities and hinders free expression & respectful debate.
