Imagine Life Campaign
The goal of the Imagine Life Campaign is to educate the American public on the human rights violations committed against Palestinians. Through this campaign, the message will be delivered to hundreds of thousands of American households in the Boston and Metropolitan area through cable television. This public awareness campaign seeks to illustrate the humanity and suffering of Palestinians living under occupation and in exile. It depicts the Israeli occupation as a humanitarian crisis; it addresses religious freedoms; it promotes the idea of speaking out against the Israeli occupation, and it gives a picture of the Palestinian living conditions, including the lack of basic economic needs and freedom. Furthermore, the ads address the loss of hope for millions of Palestinians as a result of the occupation.
The campaign consists of five TV commercials; four-30 second commercials and one -60 second commercial. The commercials will be aired on the following channels: CNN, CNN headline news, MSNBC, CNBC, MTV, HISTORY CHANNEL, and FOX-NEWS CHANNEL.
Imagine-Life is a non-profit organization, which was formed by concerned Americans of many different religious and ethnic backgrounds, who feel that basic human rights should apply to all individuals without discrimination. Imagine-Life supports the principles espoused in the United Nations Universal Declaration of Human Rights and recognizes their importance on efforts to resolve conflicts.
Imagine-Life has partnered with various organizations, which support the campaign initiatives. Some of their partners, supporting the first campaign are- Jewish Voices for Peace, The Israeli Refuser Solidarity Network, Remember these Children, the Holy Land Christian Society, and the Network of Arab-American Professionals.
Imagine-Life strongly opposes all forms of bigotry and racism, and works toward a vision in which people of all races, creeds and ethnicities co-exist in mutual respect, cooperation and understanding. The organization opposes the killing of all civilians, and supports a nonviolent approach to resolving the Middle East conflict.
