Penn State Professor Donates antique map of Palestine to SJP

A professor on campus donated an antique map of Palestine to us. He attached a card with the following message,

Dear Students for Justice in Palestine,

I found this map in an antique store in Lewisburg in 2005. Thought you all would like it.

My maternal grandmother’s family were murdered in Nazi camps – she barely escaped. Using their suffering in order to justify the oppression of the Palestinians is a crime.

Please use this map to help students and other at Penn State to REMEMBER – the history of Palestine, the suffering of Palestinians today, never to quit fighting until we win justice in Palestine for Jews and Arabs alike.

Best of Luck,
-signature

Please don't think that I have any desire to be anonymous. I was delighted to turn the map over to the club. Sincerely, James Endres Howell.
