Welcome! We are the DC Metro chapter of Jewish Voice for Peace, a grassroots, multiracial, cross-class, intergenerational movement of U.S. Jews organizing for Palestinian liberation and a Judaism beyond Zionism.

If you’re looking for a political home for Jews on the left in this perilous moment; if you’re wanting a Jewish community with justice at the center; if you're looking to turn your anger and grief into meaningful, strategic action: you belong here.
