Send Letter of Support for "Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present" Exhibit at the Canadian Museum for Human Rigths

For the past ten years, the Palestinian Canadian Congress has worked to bring a national Nakba exhibit to life. With the support and expertise of the Palestinian Content Advisory Network, this vision has finally become a reality.

The exhibit, Palestine Uprooted: Nakba Past and Present, is now set to be presented at a national human rights institution following the public announcement by the Director of the Canadian Museum for Human Rights on November 19th, confirming an opening date of June 2026. This is a major step forward and something our community has long fought for.

We welcome this exhibit. It is long overdue. The Nakba is one of the most important events in modern history. It shaped every part of Palestinian life, culture, identity, and struggle. Its impact continues to this day, felt across generations both in Palestine and in the global diaspora.

Honest education about the Nakba is essential for any meaningful understanding of human rights. It allows the public to understand how displacement, loss, and ongoing injustice have shaped an entire people. It helps counter the silencing and denial that Palestinians face in public life. And it affirms that Palestinian history belongs in national institutions.

This exhibit matters. It deserves strong public support and a commitment that it will not be weakened, shortened, or undermined.

This letter is one way to make that clear. We invite you to sign and help protect this important step toward truthful public education in Canada.
