The body of Zehir Al-Najar, a six-year old Palestinian boy from the Gaza Strip, seen at the morgue of Saint Joseph hospital in East Jerusalem, after dying from injuries suffered by an Israeli military strike in the Gaza Strip city of Khan Yunis, July 29, 2014. Israeli authorities exceptionally authorised to move Al-Najar into Israel in order to receive a specialized brain surgery following negotiations between the Red Cross and The Palestinian Authority; he did not survive surgery.
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.
