About Upstate Voices for Palestine
Education. Solidarity. Advocacy.
Who We Are
Upstate Voices for Palestine is a Greenville, South Carolina-based community organization dedicated to raising awareness about Palestinian rights and building solidarity across the Upstate region. Founded by concerned community members, we believe that education and dialogue are powerful tools for justice.
We are neighbors, students, educators, artists, and families united by a shared commitment to human rights and dignity for all people. Our work is rooted in the belief that informed communities are empowered communities.

We host monthly screenings of documentaries and films that illuminate the Palestinian experience, followed by community discussion. Past screenings include No Other Land and Stitching Palestine.

Educational events featuring scholars, authors, and community leaders who provide historical context and contemporary analysis on Palestine and the broader Middle East.
