	"description": "Join us, Saturday, February 28, 2026, for “The Consequence of Palestine” (click here for more information). The all-day conference centers Palestine in a global context where international law, human rights, and truth are the casualties of violent state power and media narrative control. &amp;nbsp; The Palestinian people have been victims of these forces for generations; now we see how the collapse of international law and human rights lie exposed in Gaza’s ruins. The consequence of Palestine is a warning to the world.
