Wafa Tayara at a demonstration for democracy in Carcor, Israel

Listen to the brave words said by Wafa Tayara, the field coordinator of Maan - a workers' Association in the triangle area and a social activist, at a demonstration for democracy in Carcur, Israel: "Everywhere the struggle for democracy is conducted in a different language and under different conditions, but we share the same values: Human dignity. Equality for all. We oppose religious and nationalist extremism. We oppose sexism.  We are for social justice that will give the poor and the workers a chance. American President Biden defined it well when he said that the world is struggling between two options democracy or dictatorship."

As an organization committed to the rights of workers without distinction of religion, race, nationality, gender, or profession - democracy is our essence. We strongly oppose the authoritarian laws that the extreme government of Netanyahu, Lapid, Bennett, and Smotrich is attempting to impose.

Without democracy, there are no workers' rights, just as a workers' organization cannot exist under dictatorship.

only a victory of the democratic camp will enable a discussion on the Palestinian issue and lead to an alternative solution to occupation and apartheid while ensuring human rights and citizenship for all, Israelis and Palestinians alike. As long as the apartheid regime persists, the democratic camp will not succeed in defeating Israeli extremists. Therefore, we work to involve the Arab and Palestinian society in the protest.

We invite you:

To march with us in protests and to build an alternative, democratic, Jewish-Arab professional union in Israel. Join our quiet WhatsApp group today, "Marching with us in protest."
