As Palestinians, we call for meaningful solidarity, we demand accountability.

Journalist syndicates & media studies/journalism faculties must take concrete action to hold apartheid Israel accountable for the murder of #ShireenAbuAkleh. #JusticeForShireen

Journalist syndicates, unions and federations should:

- End ties with complicit Israeli institutions.

- Pledge to refuse junkets to Israel funded by the Israeli government, complicit Israeli institutions and Israel lobby groups.

- Support journalists who refuse to cover assignments in Israel on ethical grounds.

- Support the International Federation of Journalists @IFJGlobal's case before the @IntlCrimCourt on Israel’s systematic targeting of Palestinian journalists.

- Pledge to respect the ethical and professional journalistic guidelines developed by the Palestinian Journalists’ Syndicate and the Palestinian BDS National Committee.

- Pledge to center Palestinian voices and eyewitnesses instead of centering Israeli government spokespersons.

Media studies and journalism faculties, departments, and programs should:

- Respect the Palestinian #BDS call by ending ties with complicit Israeli institutions.

- Refuse to host official representatives of complicit Israeli institutions.

Condemn the killing, but hold the killers accountable, too.
