The staff at Hamilton Artists Inc. is endorsing PACBI, The Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel. As an artist-run centre dedicated to critical engagement, it behooves us to look critically at our own organization and how the arts sector is complicit. We know that artists and cultural workers hold power, and who we decide to work, collaborate with, and accept funding reflects our values.
Staff felt compelled to endorse PACBI because we believe in clearly drawing the line between cultural workers and the actions of governments funding and endorsing the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians by Israel. In the midst of a televised genocide, staff refuse to artwash Israel’s occupation, and systemic denial of Palestinian rights.
For questions about the Inc staff’s endorsement of PACBI, please contact info@theinc.ca
Writers Against the War on Gaza provides resources about PACBI and is available to support organizations wishing to endorse the PACBI guidelines. Visit them here: https://writersagainstthewarongaza.com/pacbior email boycott@wawog.com
