How We Started
Here, I’d like to quote British Labour Councilor Jo Bird:
“We stand for justice and human rights for all … Many of us feel solidarity with Palestinians because of, not in spite of, our Jewish heritage.”
I’d also like to quote Yoly Zentella, PhD:
“In my cocina no other olive oil plays a part and each time I use it, I’m sending an anonymous message to not only olive growers in the West Bank, but all Palestinians living under occupation, ‘ you may not know me, but you are very much a part of my life and of my familia; you have not been erased and could never be forgotten’. ”
As Americans, we see very little of the humanity of people living in other countries, especially those in Palestine. I founded Olive Branch Fair Trade to lovingly present foods and handcrafted items from this ancient living tradition.
