Support Jon Jon's Run for Visualizing Palestine

Visualizing Palestine uses data and research to visually communicate Palestinian experiences to provoke narrative change. The organization envisions a liberated future for Palestinians in a world free from oppression.

On April 27, 2025, writer Jon Jon Moore Palacios is running the 2025 NYCRUNS Brooklyn Half Marathon to raise funds for their work. Please help us reach $5,000 and stay tuned for training and community updates!

FAQ

Where will my funds go?

Visualizing Palestine (through its fiscal sponsor Empowerment WORKS) will receive 100% of donated funds.

Why does narrative change matter now?

"Palestine is the subject of more than a century of colonial narratives upheld by imperial empires, which sustain the brutal system of Israeli settler colonialism and apartheid we see today. Although the basic facts and root causes of the Palestinian struggle are well-documented, they are frequently denied or obscured by those shielding Israel from accountability. Narrative work is about building spaces to uplift aspirations for liberation, and reach people who want to deepen their understanding and action in partnership with the Palestinian people.

Visualizing Palestine creates narrative interventions that convey the urgent and the actionable. We strive to capture not just stories of struggle, but of solidarity, sumud (steadfastness), and inspiration. Our visual tools ensure that factual, liberatory narratives about Palestine are visible, accessible, and interconnected with those of other movements working for collective liberation."
