A Palestinian protester climbs the Gaza border fence, during the 27th "Great March of Return" Friday protest near the Gaza-Israel border fence, Gaza Strip, September 28, 2018. During the demonstration seven Palestinians were killed by the Israeli army, including two children. Since the weekly protests started on March 30, 2018, calling for the Right of Return for Palestinian refugees, the Israeli army has killed more than 200 Palestinians, 150 of them during demonstrations, and wounded thousands.
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.
