Palestinian youth chanting and cheering near the Gaza border fence during the 3rd week of the #GreatReturnMarch campaign, Gaza Strip, April 20, 2018. Israeli forces reportedly killed at least four protesters, among them a 15 year old boy, and injured over 400 with live ammunition and tear gas. The protests, calling for the Right of Return for Palestinian refugees, and an end to the Israeli siege on Gaza, started on Land Day, and are due to continue until Nakba Day.
The Activestills collective was established in 2005 by a group of documentary photographers, out of a strong conviction that photography is a vehicle for social change. We believe in the power of images to shape public attitudes and to raise awareness on issues that are generally absent from public discourse.
We view ourself as part of the struggle against all forms of oppression, racism, and violations of the basic right to freedom. We do work on various topics, including the grassroots movement and the popular struggle against the Israeli occupation, women’s rights, immigration, asylum-seekers, social justice, the siege on Gaza, and housing rights inside Israel.
