Fragmentation and Erasure of Palestine’s Realities
St. Mark’s Racial Equity Team joins local and national organizations in bringing the Why We
Record: Defying Fragmentation and Erasure in Palestine exhibit to the Fox Valley on Saturday,
October 3 from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM and Sunday, October 4 from 11:30 AM – 2:00 PM in the
Fellowship Hall at St. Mark’s Lutheran, 140 S. Green Bay Rd., Neenah. The exhibit has been
curated by the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) and Visualizing Palestine (VP) and
invites visitors to the exhibit to witness the truths of the past, the heartbreak of the present, and
the possibilities for a future without oppression in Palestine. The exhibit includes a collection of
VP's visuals, AFSC's archival photos, and excerpts from published stories on the themes of
fragmentation, displacement, return, and future visioning.
Why does this exhibition matter?
The exhibit’s creators deeply believe that the injustices experienced by Palestinians will end,
and that people of conscience all over the world have a role to play in realizing an end to
oppression. They share a deep respect for the storytellers who narrate the painful realities of
Palestinians who cannot yet live in dignity and freedom.
