LAST IRL EVER!

http://apartheidweek.org/

This is an article about the annual celebration of Israeli Apartheid Week, published on Apartheid Week organization, based out of Canada. It connects to our [past] study of Palestine and lasting effects of the struggle between Jews and Arabs (it makes mention of "Israel's brutal assault against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip" etc.) and adds to what we learned because I didn't know there was an "Apartheid Week" celebrated in Israel and all over different cities and stuff; it shows how the struggle in their society is still leaving marks today/trying to be resolved. A possible limitation is the exact reliability/clarity of the source, as the promotional poster claims the dates of the celebration last One week (which would make sense since it's called Apartheid WEEK), but in the article it says March 1-14, so there is some discrepancy.
