We are the Jerusalem Youth Chorus: Palestinians and Israelis raising our voices to push back against the violence surrounding usāto reject war, occupation, and terror, and instead sing out for peace, justice, inclusion, and equality. We donāt all share the same opinionsāand have hard conversations about them every weekābut we do share the same future, no matter what the politicians say. In JYC we have a rare chance to truly hear each other, and thatās what makes the chorus a home for all of us. Every kid deserves to grow up with that same safety and dignity. We know we donāt have the power to single-handedly stop war, but we also know that the reason war continues is because people think there is no alternative. We are the alternative.
